August Horch Museum Zwickau

Zwickau was where August Horch set up his automobile manufacturing companies at the begininning of the 20th century. A decision was made in 2000 that the former Audi factory will also be converted to a museum. The new facility, which was named after August Horch, founder of Audi, was opened in 2004. It has a unique background: it is not entirely a corporate museum, but enjoys the financial benefits of being closely associated with Audi. It features the rich automotive history of Saxony, with a particular focus on the brands Audi have been associated with.

Automobil-Park Auwärter

Konrad Auwärter realised one of his lifelong ambitions by putting together this incredible museum, which charts the story of both the Auwärter company and Neoplan buses and the story of coachbuilding in general. There is also a separate section on Glas, Reutter and Porsche. A really nice museum, which is just a stone's throw away from the Neoplan factory in Pilsting.
