'Building the future on tradition' – the Mercedes-Benz Museum in Stuttgart is more than just a home for 125 years of automotive history.
The building housing the Mercedes-Benz Museum is an
exceptional piece of architecture, which reflects the ideals of
originality that lie at the heart of the Mercedes-Benz brand, always
striving to create completely new concepts for human mobility. A double
helix inside the museum, based on human DNA, symbolises the 'genetic
makeup' of the brand. There are two tours available. The route of the
first takes in seven 'Legend rooms' that relate the history of the
Mercedes brand. From car production pioneers to motor racing icons, you
can find out everything there is to know about the remarkable history of
Mercedes-Benz. The second tour consists of five separate 'Collection
rooms' that showcase the diversity of the brand portfolio from passenger
cars to heavy goods vehicles. The 'Fascination of Technology'
exhibition provides visitors with a glimpse behind the scenes into the
work of Mercedes-Benz employees and towards the future of the motor car.
A detailed picture of the Mercedes-Benz brand emerges from over 1,450
individual exhibits, including 160 vehicles, many of them epoch-making,
such as the Gullwing from the 1950s and the Silver Arrows. Special
exhibitions round off the experience. Take a journey of discovery
through the history of the motor car, from its very beginnings 125 years
ago to the latest technological visions for the future. Come to
Stuttgart and come face to face with the history of mobility!
