Boxenstop Tübingen, Automobile and toy museum in Tübingen, Germany
Boxenstop is an automobile and toy museum in Tübingen housing the private collection of Rainer and Ute Klink. Its roughly 1,200 square metres hold 70 cars, motorcycles and bicycles plus over 1,000 toys. Among the vehicles are a black two-seater with a tall green grille and wire wheels, and a blue open-wheel racing car marked with the number 4.
Rainer and Ute Klink founded the museum in 1985 with about 200 square metres of exhibition space. It was later expanded in stages to 1,200 square metres, the last extension dating from 2017. The collection now numbers 70 cars, motorcycles and bicycles alongside more than 1,000 toys.
The museum is run by its founders Rainer and Ute Klink, who display their own private collection. Among the 70 vehicles and over 1000 toys, visitors can spot a black two-seater with a Union Jack on its louvered hood and a blue open-wheel racing car marked with the number 4 and "FOSTER'S" lettering.
The museum grew from about 200 square metres in 1985 to 1,200 square metres after the last expansion in 2017, so allow time for a collection of 70 vehicles and over 1,000 toys. The exhibition rooms are spread over this expanded floor space, and the two-seater sports car and the blue Foster's single-seater stand on metal and tiled floors.
The museum's collection grew from a private hobby: founders Rainer and Ute Klink began with a 1962 Volvo PV 544, and the display opened in 1985 on about 200 square metres. It now covers 1,200 square metres after the last expansion in 2017, holding 70 vehicles and over 1,000 toys.
