Museums in Germany

Museum Mobile

The Audi museum mobile combines historic exhibits with modern presentation forms to produce an exciting symbiosis, making the journey through the past an equally informative and interesting experience. Even the museum’s unusual architecture, which follows the theme of a tree’s annual rings behind its fully glazed facade, symbolically unites permanence and change. State-of-the-art presentation techniques using pictures, presentations and multimedia elements place the numerous exhibits in their historical context and bring the past alive.

Museum of Industrial Culture

The Museum Industriekultur was opened in a former screw factory in 1988. Its exhibition focuses on the history of industrialisation, with an emphasis on everyday life and living conditions, public infrastructure, transport and energy. This museum is not about the ‘big story’. It tells smaller, more intimate stories about the industrial past of Nuremberg. A large section is devoted to locally built motorcycles - Victoria, Ardie etc. Additionally the the museum showcases several automobiles that were built in Nuremberg.

Museum of Military and Contemporary History

Günther Weissenseel grew up in postwar Franconia, surrounded by the region’s history. His youthful friendship with American soldiers grew into an avid interest in all things military. He collected documents, uniforms, weapons, trucks, tanks, even field kitchens. He gathered German, American and, later, Soviet relics wherever he could find them. In 1994, he and some friends created the Military History Club Franconia with the hopes of displaying some of the pieces he had gathered.
