About
The Mercedes-Benz Museum sits in Stuttgart, Germany, at Mercedesstraße 100, 70372 Stuttgart. It is also known as Mercedes-Benz Welt, and it is devoted to the history of the car brand over roughly 130 years of automotive development.
The building itself is a draw. Its spiral design lets visitors move upward through the galleries, so the story of the marque unfolds in sequence as you climb. Inside you will find more than 160 vehicles and around 1,500 exhibits, covering the engineering, design and milestones that shaped the company's cars over time.
What a visit offers
- A chronological journey through the brand's automotive history, from its early vehicles onward.
- A large collection of cars displayed alongside a wide range of supporting exhibits.
- An architectural setting that is part of the experience as much as the displays are.
The museum suits anyone interested in cars and engineering, and also visitors who simply want to see how a major industrial company presents its past. Because the exhibits are arranged in order, the visit works well at a steady pace, whether you come as a dedicated enthusiast or as a curious traveller with an afternoon to spare.
