Dear Dorothee,

That database is not (currently) included with SAGE.  Fortunately,
you can download it from here:
   http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/novoselt/
Once you download it, start SAGE from the same directory and
type

sage: L =  lattice_polytope.read_all_polytopes("K3vertices", "K3 %4d")
sage: L[0]
K3    0: 3-dimensional, 4 vertices.
sage: L[1]
K3    1: 3-dimensional, 4 vertices.

 William
