    A heartwarming and nostalgic experience for seasoned Formula 1 fans and a must see for younger fans. Truly encapsulates the man and the racer alike. Only posting 2 photos to preserve the experience for any wanting to go themselves. Keep fighting Michael

    Great collection of vintage automobiles and formula 1 cars. The admission is free so even better! You can get some food and beverages while here as well. If you have some spare change there are autos that you can make an offer on as well.

    Correct! Well done! A “must see” for every car fan! Clear recommendation! Every high-quality car brand is represented. There are also many special models. The Michael Schumacher collection is particularly impressive. The pictures speak for themselves.

    You simply have to be here. Great locations on the former airfield site in Cologne Butzweiler. The V8 Hotel alone with the integrated gastronomy is worth seeing and worthwhile. Everything is free, including Motorworld with its unique car show. Gladly again.

    Interesting. Mr. Schumacher's cars, clothes and prizes. There is a room with videos from childhood. For free. Parking is next to it. First hour free, then €1.6/hour. There is a coffee shop on the ground floor with delicious, cheap meals.

    This is a must visit for all Schumacher fans! The admission is FREE, but you'll have to pay for the parking, which was EUR2 for 2 hours, so very cheap. For me the collection was like a candy shop for a kid. Even though the museum is small, I probably spent 2 hours there. They have all Schumacher race cars, helmets, race suits, trophies and other stuff. There's also a store where you can buy some race related merch, and a restaurant where you can eat. Must visit!

    Collection of all Michael Schumacher's title winnings cars. There are also helmets and overalls from all active years. Additionally there are other things like gifts given from teams to Michael and engine and of course some videos of Michaels career in both English and German. This place is easy to get to by tram and there is not cost involved.

    Wow Small and fine Motorworld in Cologne. You can also see a few hypercars, but mostly upper-class vehicles. The reason for all Michael Schumacher fans is the exhibition on the first floor. Formula 1 cars, trophies, helmets, racing suits etc. Go and be amazed!

  • 5/5 Samad G. 2 years ago on Google
    Very comprehensive and breathtaking. The cars with which he has raced and won. Most medals and trophies he has received. The helmets and clothes he had on the races. The car with which he practiced as a child. Amazing. There is also an official shop selling items. Definitely worth a visit.

    Schumacher , a man you must know if you live in Germany or if you like F1. Then it is a place you must come to approach him little bit.

    INDESCRIBEABLE! This one word completely describes what you get here for FREE. I could hardly hold back my tears, I was so overwhelmed. I think it's so great that as a simple person you have such a privilege and can see all of our motorsport idol's racing cars up close. Please please keep it up!

  • 5/5 Honza �. 4 months ago on Google • 71 reviews
    Great Private Collection (car museum) in Köln, lot of exhibits, free entrance, I recommend about 2 hours for the tour. In the 2nd floor there is an exclusive F1 cars collection of Michael Schumacher. Except Formula cars there are also Michael's racing gloves, suits and trophies exposed. Perfect accessibility by public transport. Worth to visit during your Cologne stay not only for F1 fans but also for all motorsport lovers, petrolheads and also families. After you can buy some refreshment and souvenirs.

    It's a place full of history and nice cars. On the top floor is Michael Schumacher private collection and on the ground floor it's another beautiful collection. On my second picture you can see the specs of his cart that he used all the time for practice. Not only you can see them, you can touch them, jump on the driver seat and buy it if you can afford. Enjoy!

    (Translated by Google) A beautiful reminiscence to the legend Michael Schumacher. So that you always like to come back, and always something new discovered. Whether overalls, helmets, trophies, all world champion cars, or inactive content, it is simply offered a lot of variety. The myth Schumi lives, and here a monument was set for him. For me great and worth mentioning: the entrance is free. (Original) Eine wunderschöne Reminiszenz an die Legende Michael Schumacher. So das man immer wieder gerne wiederkommt, und immer wieder etwas neues entdeckt. Ob Overalls, Helme, Pokale, sämtliche Weltmeisterautos, oder inaktive Inhalte, es wird einfach unglaublich viel Abwechslung geboten. Der Mythos Schumi lebt, und hier wurde ihm ein Denkmal gesetzt. Für mich toll und erwähnenswert: der Eintritt ist frei.

    (Translated by Google) A very special collection of cars! As a big Schumacher fan, I just missed the experience, as modern museums often have. With e.g. interactive elements, special films on a big screen, something for the children, etc. It is all quite static. In that respect a bit of a missed opportunity. (Original) Een hele bijzondere collectie van auto's! Als groot Schumacher fan miste ik alleen wel de beleving, zoals moderne musea dit vaak hebben. Met b.v. interactieve elementen, bijzondere films op een groot scherm, iets voor de kinderen etc. Het is vrij statisch allemaal. Wat dat betreft een beetje een gemiste kans.
