We compute the value of the simplicial volume for closed, oriented Riemannian
manifolds covered by $\mathbb{H}^{2}\times\mathbb{H}^{2}$ explicitly, thus in
particular for products of closed hyperbolic surfaces. This gives the first
exact value of a nonvanishing simplicial volume for a manifold of nonconstant
curvature.
