Car Museum Lemgo

Car Museum Lemgo, Automobile museum in Lemgo, Germany.

Car Museum Lemgo, in German Automuseum d. kleine Lemgoer, is an automobile museum in the Hörstmar district of Lemgo in North Rhine-Westphalia. It shows about 40 cars, 10 motorcycles and 4 engines, centred on Porsche sports cars: 356, 911, 550, 718, 904, 917, 597 and 944. Further vehicles include a 1951 Ford Taunus (G73A), BMW 315/1, Ferrari 512 BB, Glas 1004, Honda S800, several Mercedes-Benz, NSU-Fiat 500, Rolls-Royce 20/25 hp, Seat 600, Sylva Fury and VW Käfer.

Orthodontist Klaus Otto Räker bought his first classic car, a Mercedes-Benz 300 SL, in 1976 and added further old vehicles over the years. In 1993 he opened his automobile museum in Hörstmar, a district of Lemgo. After Räker's death in 2019, Gerrit Emmerich took over the museum and now opens it only by appointment.

The museum's name, d. kleine Lemgoer, is a local nickname for the collection. The focus on Porsche sports cars reflects founder Klaus Otto Räker's collecting interests, with models such as the 356, 911, 550, 718, 904, 917, 597 and 944 on show. The 4 engines displayed are part of the approximately 40 cars and 10 motorcycles that make up the collection.

The museum in Hörstmar, a district of Lemgo, is no longer open every Sunday as it once was. Since founder Klaus Otto Räker died in 2019, Gerrit Emmerich has run it and opens it only by appointment. Visitors should arrange a time in advance rather than simply turning up.
