I'm not usually very interested in cars, but I planned this trip to the Autostadt because I figured my son and husband would enjoy it. I was pleasantly surprised to find there were things I enjoyed too! First of all, the site is beautifully landscaped with beautiful flower beds and sculptures alongside the Aller river. There is a history museum... More

For a car-crazy family like mine, it was a day to remember .. The inside VW factory tour with giant robots efficiently working, picking up materials, welding, accommodating eachother's movements like well-cultured people was worth a watch. A huge telescope crane, picking up and moving the partially finished VW car to its next workstation was a fascinating sight. The huge... More

There are various car museums sponsored by the different car companies, and I've been to several of them. This did not prepare me for the Autostadt, which is on a different scale entirely -- sort of like an Epcot Center of car stuff. There is a magnificent entry hall, with a very nice restaurant. Then there are separate buildings housing... More

Remarkable example of German architecture, efficiency and affection for the Volkswagen brand. I can only imagine how exciting it must be to collect your new car from these vast towers. Excellent. More

Kids had a blast on mini VW driving course and indoor activities too. All Pavilions were interesting with some more so than others. It has potential to add more information on each model but they have gone with a 'modern minimalist' approach. We also did the tour of the towers including a ride on the mechanical robot up to the...

We had an English Factory tour which was supposed to be for one hour. In actual fact, the net tour was more like 25 minutes. It was a whiz around the assembly line where you didn't get to see much. We expected to see all aspects of the cars being manufactured, but all we got to see was a very... More

As written by the other reviewers, many visitors will be disappointed as Autostadt is not fulfilling the expectations of car lovers...The pavillions (Seat, Audi, Skoda, Lamborghini and VW of course) are a shame. At Audi one R8 and a tuned A1, at Seat and Skoda no special models but the same modelss you could find at your next dealer....At VW... More

As a big VW/Audi Group fan, I had been looking forward to visiting the Autostadt for quite some time. I planned in a two-day visit to the Autostadt at the end of my holiday in Berlin. We turned up at the Autostadt at about 12:30PM after taking the train from Berlin, and purchased two 2-day tickets. The receptionist who sold... More

After more than thirty years of owning and driving Volkswagens, I finally got to visit the original home of the Beetle and generations of cars to follow. The Autostadt is not part of the worlds largest single factory, but it is right next to the famous factory power station with its four tall smokestacks and giant VW logo. The Autostadt... More
