Boxenstop Tübingen

Boxenstop is a museum in Tübingen displaying classic racing cars, sports cars, motorcycles, and over 2,000 toys across roughly 1,200 square meters. The objects range from the early 1900s to recent times and show how transportation and toy manufacturing evolved.

The museum began from a private collection starting with a 1962 Volvo PV 544 and opened as Motormuseum in 1985. It has since grown into a comprehensive exhibition documenting the history of automotive culture and toy manufacturing.

The collection reflects how Germans approached toy and car manufacturing with attention to detail and craftsmanship. Visitors notice vintage advertisements, metal signs, and decorative lamps that reveal the pride taken in these industries.

The museum operates with shorter hours on weekdays and extended hours on weekends, so plan your visit accordingly. Allow enough time to walk through the full collection of vehicles and toys at a relaxed pace.

The Lloyd record car from 1954, known as The White Mouse, holds a special place in the collection because of its racing achievements. This small vehicle set multiple speed records despite its modest size, showing the ingenuity of German car makers.
