Auto-Skulpturen-Park im Neandertal

Tourist attraction Park Museum Open air museum

😐 On the one hand, it makes your heart bleed to see such beautiful vintage cars falling into disrepair, but on the other hand, it also creates a certain fascination. Children are free of charge and can take photos for free. Everyone has to decide for themselves whether it is worth paying €20 per perso... People often mention cars, park,

    Was very interesting to watch. You can take really nice photos. However, the high entrance fee of 10 euros per person and 20 euros per person with photography permission should also be used for the renovation of the paths and stairs. No wonder you have to sign such a disclaimer.

    On the one hand, it makes your heart bleed to see such beautiful vintage cars falling into disrepair, but on the other hand, it also creates a certain fascination. Children are free of charge and can take photos for free. Everyone has to decide for themselves whether it is worth paying €20 per person to take a few pictures. The so-called park is unfortunately very small, partly carelessly arranged and unfortunately also contains a lot of kitsch. The facility has 2 parking spaces and when the weather is nice, the parking lot at the nearby museum is quite full. In my opinion, it's still worth going there once in your life and after the short tour, going to the cafe below for a coffee and cake.

    e woman at the gate told us that there’s an aggressive dog of theirs loose around the park .. so be careful bringing children . Basically saying no dogs allowed but with no signs at all or on their website The woman who I’m guessing is the owner asked us to leave our dog in our car in 25 degrees heat Also found out it’s 10€ entry plus another 20€ to take pictures . So would have cost us 30€ and our dog suffering in the car . Also they live near or on the premises and can put their dog in the house , which would make more sense . Don’t bother with the place

    Very interesting exhibition of rotting vehicles as art objects. Also suitable for photographers.

    I find the park breathtaking. There are so many different classic cars and other things. Great photo opportunities. You pay 10 euros without a camera and 20 euros with a camera. We find it worthwhile. A great trip even for children.

    No direct parking spaces Dogs not allowed, without any information about it - I was able to go for a walk with the dog alone (without family) on a family outing... Poor value for money... Strange to strange signs at the entrance about opening times and the guard dog and a really aggressive dog on the premises.

    This collection really offers many opportunities to capture great motifs. Impressive and beautiful in a special way. A lost place for one entry (10€ + 10€ if you like taking photos). The extra price for the photography is the star deduction. But all in all, a very nice woman at the checkout who gives good tips for the area and the classic cars are exactly as you see them in the pictures.

    (Translated by Google) I'm a little torn ... Great old car wrecks, real eye-catchers on the one hand. And then white path lighting, garden gnomes and pure kitsch on the other side. Cult paired with kitsch. Already strange…. (Original) Bin ein wenig hin- und hergerissen…. Tolle alte Autowracks, echte Hingucker auf der einen Seite. Und dann weisse Wegbeleuchtung, Gartenzwerge und Kitsch pur auf der anderen Seite. Kult gepaart mit Kitsch. Schon Strange ….

    Neglected small forest with rusty cars and high entrance fees. The journey isn't worth it. All the photos of the classic cars are already available hundreds of times on the Internet.

    A really bizarre place that I have never seen anywhere else. Unfortunately the price-performance ratio is not right at all. 10 euros entry and 20 with photo permission are not proportionate for these bad paths and rotten stairs and the feeling of standing next to the cars on a landfill. Behind the cars there were discarded tires, chairs, etc. everywhere. There was also a lack of any kind of information about the park and the cars. You can't call it a museum.

    A must for amateur photographers and urban explorers. The welcome was very friendly and the atmosphere on site was good. We liked it very much. We will definitely do this again at another time of year. The parking options on site are a bit poor. However, you can park nearby in the museum parking lot for a fee.

    It's a shame about the great cars. The only thing that is happy here is the prices...

    We have never seen anything so special and crazy before. Here you can actually stop shutting your mouth in amazement👍😲❤️

  • 5/5 Edyta W. 1 year ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Fantastic place, here you only realize how time and nature will absorb everything ... walking there along the streets, I had the impression that something remained for a moment as a memento of the past, so that we could all see something else ... that once seemed to be perfect ... and today? today it's just a memory ... (Original) Fantastyczne miejsce, tutaj dopiero sobie człowiek uświadamia jak czas i natura pochłonie wszystko... chodząc tam uliczkami, miałam wrażenie, że jeszcze na chwilę coś pozostało na pamiątkę po przeszłości, abyśmy my wszyscy mogli zobaczyć jeszcze coś... co kiedyś wydawało się doskonałością... a dziś? dziś jest to już tylko wspomnienie...

    Great excursion point. A must for hobby photographers!

  • 5/5 André K. 1 year ago on Google • 16 reviews
    You should have seen it! All cars vintage 50 (+/- 9 months). Michael Fröhlich is super uncomplicated and his wife is also happy to provide information. In my opinion, a 20 euro fee for photography is justified

    Just realized it is a museum, just thought it was somebody's weird private garden. Should have come inside

    Огромное спасибо за массу приятнейших впечатлений, оставшихся надолго. Такое не часто встречается. Снова вернусь как только смогу быть в этих краях. Ради такого пешая прогулка в 20км вовсе не в тягость, а только в удовольствие ))) И, да, "...я сюда ещё вернусь. Мне бы только выбрать день..." (с) Андрей Макаревич

    (Translated by Google) Great, old cars that slowly but surely take the path of the ephemeral. There is much to see. Good idea. (Original) Tolle, alte Autos die langsam aber sicher den Weg des vergänglichen gehen. Es gibt viel zu sehen. Klasse Idee.

    W roku 2000, pewien mężczyzna kupił na swoje 50- dziesiąte urodziny 5 aut z lat 50- dziąsiatych i tak rzekomo powstała ta kolekcja 🚘 Aut obecnie jest około 50 i w takiej właśnie formie właściciel chciał utrzymać cały park 🤗 I aż żal, że niszczeją pozostawione samym sobie 😔

    This was the second time in the park. Once in spring and now in August. You can sometimes notice changes within a few months. It's not huge, but it's very interesting and a must for analogue photography.
