Mercedes-Benz Museum

Mercedes-Benz Museum

The new building of the Mercedes-Benz Museum in Stuttgart was inaugurated on May 19, 2006. After two and a half years of construction, the museum has become an iconic landmark in Stuttgart, adding a splash of brilliance to the city.

It is the only museum in the world that can present 120 years of automotive history, and its exhibition concept is also very unique: within a nine-story building spanning 16,500 square meters of exhibition space, two separate routes guide visitors through more than 1,500 exhibits, including 160 vehicles. The museum is located close to the Mercedes-Benz headquarters in Stuttgart-Untertürkheim, bridging the connection between “tradition” and “modernity.” Here, you can experience the continuous innovative strength of the Mercedes-Benz brand and glimpse a brilliant future through the development of automotive history.

The Mercedes-Benz Museum not only presents the exciting history of the Mercedes-Benz brand but also offers an inspiring vision of the future. This dual function is also reflected in the architectural structure created by the world-renowned Dutch design firm “UN Studio,” founded by architects Ben van Berkel and Caroline Bos. In terms of design, the strikingly modern style not only embodies future elements but also preserves the traditions of the Mercedes-Benz brand. The interior structure of the new museum mimics the double helix of DNA, reflecting the brand’s original philosophy of continuously launching new products to meet individual evolution—from the invention of the automobile to the ideal of accident-free driving for the future.
