BMW Museum Zeithorizonte

Fodor's Review:

Munich is the home of the famous BMW car company. Its museum, a circular tower that looks as if it served as a set for Star Wars, is unfortunately closed until sometime in 2007. No exact date has been set for its reopening. However, the exhibition has been moved across the street to a building next to the Olympia tower. It contains not only a dazzling collection of BMWs old and new but also items and exhibitions relating to the company's social history and its technical developments. The BMW factory (089/3895-3308. www.bmw-plant-munich.com. Weekdays 10-1) is also nearby and can be toured daily. However, registration for plant tours is possible only in advance using the electronic registration form, which is only in German. There is no longer a phone number to call and reserve. Reserve weeks in advance if you want to get a slot during your trip.

  • Cost: EUR 2
  • Open: Daily 10-8
  • Metro: Petuelring (U-bahn)
