Erwin Hymer Museum

The Erwin Hymer Museum is a recreational vehicle museum in Bad Waldsee that displays caravans, motorhomes, camper vans, cars, and motorcycles from different periods. The collection spans thousands of square meters and traces how mobile travel has developed across many decades.

The museum was founded to document the history of mobile leisure culture, which began in the post-war period and has since spread worldwide. The exhibits show the technical and design changes that shaped this industry.

The exhibits show how caravanning changed the way people travel and feature stories of families and adventurers who chose mobile lifestyles across different decades.

Visitors can explore the museum every day of the week and receive information about different exhibition areas while there. A smartphone guide helps with navigation and offers deeper insights into individual vehicles and the collection.

The museum features special photo stations where visitors can capture memories and download them later using their ticket barcode. This interactive feature lets guests personally save images of their favorite objects from the collection.
