Dackel, you finally visited my favorite museum. I first visited it about 20 years ago because our factory is just a few miles up the hill from the museum. I noticed that they didn't have any US license plates so I brought one on my next visit. If you look above the yellow tractor you will see it, KO-968, just below the Lincoln nose. Other visitors from the US saw the RI plate and now they have lots. The current muxeum is about 3x what it was when I first visited, and the keep expanding.

Did you watch the silent movie? The owner's mom used to play the piano during the movie.

I tell my German colleagues that that is what my house would look like if I wasn't married.

That was really cool of you to bring him a US state plate.

Silent movie? No where was THAT? I almost missed seeing the downstairs keller hidden behind the self playing piano! But on my second trip around the museum I saw the steps down into the Keller. I also saw in that last hall where the American cars were... there was "more stuff" upstairs(above the red helicopter)... but they had roped off the upstairs to museum guests.

I know I will go back there soon. In the Spring time(maybe ?) - I have always wanted to drive the Deutsche Alpine Strasse (B-500) that runs from Baden Baden down to Fruedenstadt. I need to go drive that road in the Springtime.

another video on the "museum" I found. Kind of gives you a better feel for how much "stuff" that guy has in his "collection"...

I love the little shrine to 'Oma' in the middle of it.

I brought one RI plate, the one on the wall, and then three more RI plates later for trading material.

The little movie theater is behind the counter on the left just as you enter the building.

They rent the BMW 503 for weddings and other events.

They used to have a Porsche tractor there, but sold it.

Wow, that is quite the collection.

Awesome pictures, Dack! That's definitely on the list for our next European Delivery / trip to Germany.

I think it would be fun to mount the front of a classic car on the wall in our family room. I wonder how long it would take for my wife to notice...

Amazing collections!

I was recently down in the Black Forrest area. This is the land of Kukko Clocks and fresh smoked meats. Here is a small taste. I stayed at the Mummelsee high up on the Deutsche Alpine Strasse...

Last week I stayed in a hotel just down the street from the MUSEO DEI TRASPORTI OGLIARI, but didn't have a chance to visit. http://www.museodeitrasportiogliari.it Hopefully I will be in the area again later this year and can visit.

It is getting difficult to find museums that you have not already visited.

Thanks for that link! That's a new one I had not seen before. The lake district down there is quite beautiful.

Keep those museum suggestions coming.
