Automotive City in Wolfsburg (Autostadt)

Our rating: 7.60
Overall rating:
Automotive city in Wolfsburg or Autostadt is the largest German, and maybe European, car entertainment center.

It was built in 2000 for several purposes: car sales, test drives, educational center, museum (ZeitHaus) and entertainment center. Another goal was to create a tourist attraction for Wolfsburg, since apart from the AutoCity, there is not many interesting places here. Even now (in 2018) it looks very futuristic and it is interesting how it was perceived by the first visitors in 2000.

When buying a Volkswagen or SEAT you have the opportunity to pick it up in the AutoCity. If you live nearby, then this is a very interesting option for the whole family. The fact is that in addition to a small entertainment program, you will receive the car in the futuristic towers.

If you are visiting Wolfsburg at the end of November or in December, we strongly recommend visiting the Chtistmas market in the AutoCity. We have visited many markets and so far this is the most beautiful. Free admission.
