The Mercedes-Benz Museum – A milestone in contemporary architecture
Located at the gates of the city, visitors to Stuttgart are greeted with the view of a unique structure. Designed by UNStudio, one of the world’s most respected architecture firms, the Mercedes-Benz Museum is worth a visit for its design alone. One of the most outstanding aspects of this groundbreaking concept is the route taken by visitors through the Museum. They do not begin their visit to the exhibition at a conventional entrance at the base of the building. They are transported by lift to the top floor. Here they have the choice of two tours, during which they descend through the building. The paths of each tour meet on each floor, enabling visitors to switch between tours –the Collections tour and Legend tour –should they wish to do so. The chronological tour through the Legend rooms will take you from the dawn of automotive history in 1886 through to the present day. The museum also houses epoch-bridging exhibits set out in five Collection rooms. Eight impressive super sports cars will soon be showcasing a history of dreams come true to visitors at the Mercedes-Benz Museum. From Tuesday 27 April 2010 until Sunday 29 August 2010 a special exhibition will document the unique sports car tradition at Mercedes-Benz. One of these, unsurprisingly, will be the latest addition to the family –the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG. Make sure to set some time aside to visit the state-of-the-art Mercedes-Benz Museum in Stuttgart when traveling to Germany.
