Autostadt
Autostadt Wolfsburg
An automotive theme park beside the Volkswagen Group headquarters, with a glass car tower, brand pavilions and a car museum. It is a top choice for car enthusiasts.
The Autostadt is a large theme park next to the Volkswagen headquarters factory, opened in 2000. It has individual pavilions for the group's brands (Porsche, Lamborghini, Audi, Škoda and others), the ZeitHaus car museum showcasing classic cars through the ages, and two 48-metre-high glass car towers, from which robotic arms retrieve new cars for delivery to their owners. Paid factory tours and off-road driving experiences are also available. Admission is about €18–20, and the park is open until evening. Wolfsburg lies about 75 km east of Hanover, about 35 minutes by ICE train, and the Autostadt is just across the bridge from the station.
