Tour around Mercedes-Benz Museum in Stuttgart

The Mercedes-Benz Museum is an automotive museum based in Stuttgart. The building, which is directly situated outside the main gate of the Mercedes Benz factory in Stuttgart-Untertürkheim, was designed by UN Studio. Moreover, it is based on a unique cloverleaf concept utilizing three overlapping circles with the centre removed to form a triangular atrium and was finished and opened in 2006. In addition, to get to the museum, visitors must use a special bus that takes them from just outside the factory to the museum's main entrance. The museum itself is a modern glass and steel structure that displays around 100 cars. Admission is free and the cars they see span the history of the automobile, for it was near this site that the very first gas-powered automobiles were built. Let’s take a tour around Mercedes-Benz Museum and look inside the luxurious cars named after Mercedes-Benz like 1902 Mercedes Simplex 40 PS, 1908 Mercedes 75 PS Doppelphaeton, and so on as follows:
