Deutsches Zweirad- und NSU-Museum

The Deutsches Zweirad- und NSU-Museum is an automobile museum housed in a 13th-century building that displays over 400 motorcycles and bicycles from roughly 50 different manufacturers. The collection spreads across five floors, showing the full development of these machines from their earliest forms to today.

The museum was established in 1956 with initial support from NSU and the Munich-based Deutsches Museum, starting with roughly 70 exhibits. Over the following decades, it grew into one of Germany's largest collections of two-wheeled vehicle technology.

The collection tells the story of how German-made two-wheelers changed the way people moved around and worked. Visitors can trace the everyday choices people made when choosing their transportation across different eras.

The museum sits at Urbanstraße 9-11 and is fully accessible for visitors with limited mobility, with elevators connecting all floors. Group tours are available and provide guided insights into the collection and the stories behind individual pieces.

The museum holds the complete factory collection of every motorcycle ever made by Kreidler, a treasure trove for understanding that brand's history. It also displays the 1885 Daimler Einspur, recognized as the world's first motorcycle powered by a gasoline engine.
