Auto & Uhrenwelt Schramberg, Technology museum in Schramberg, Germany.
Auto & Uhrenwelt Schramberg is a technology museum housed in a former clock factory, displaying over 100 vehicles and numerous timepieces. The museum spans multiple floors and sections, showcasing objects from different decades of the 20th century.
The museum opened in 2010 and documents Schramberg's industrial history, where clock manufacturing provided the foundation for later automobile production. This craft tradition evolved over the century into a significant manufacturing industry in the region.
The collection reflects how timepieces and automobiles shaped the industrial identity of this region. Visitors see the craftsmanship and technical advances that continue to influence the local economy today.
The museum occupies five floors of the former H.A.U. 3/5 factory building, visited in chronological order from the top down, starting with 200 years of Black Forest clockmaking on the fourth floor. An elevator or the staircase reaches the upper levels. Allow time for 3,500 square metres of exhibits.
The exhibits are on loan from Martin Sauter, managing director and owner of Gottlieb Kern & Sohn, Europe's oldest scale factory, founded in 1844. His collection was kept in Engstingen for twelve years before it moved to Schramberg. Among the vehicles are a Brütsch Mopetta, a Messerschmitt Kabinenroller and an NSU Ro 80.
