The Mercedes Museum. not that I'm a big Mercedes fan, but I realize they created the first car. So if you fancy cars. . .

Mercedes Museum

Mercedes headquarters?

Inside the museum, Mercedes starts you with a horse. Then you see the first car.

First things first inside the Mercedes Museum. The first automobile is displayed. Now normally I'm no big fan of the Mercedes product, but you have to admit they have a legacy. From the first automobile to the silver arrow racing cars of the 50s-60s, the 300SL and 300SLR etc. It was interesting.
The copy for the audio guide was clearly written by a PR firm, carefully spinning their involvement with enslaved workers during WWII. It also took every opportunity to get you to believe that every great advancement in motoring has come from Mercedes over the years. I wonder if the authors of those tales could operate the needlessly overcomplicated modern Mercedes sedan of today.

There it is. The first Mercedes car. 1886.
