Car and toy museum Boxenstop in Tübingen

A museum you can "touch"!

The Boxenstop car and toy museum is located in the historic old town of Tübingen, somewhat hidden behind the university library.

The museum was founded in 1985 by passionate collectors Rainer and Ute Klink and is now one of the oldest private car museums in Germany. On around 1,200 square meters, there are over 80 vintage racing cars, sports cars, racing motorcycles and bicycles as well as more than 2,000 toys such as model trains, cars, airplanes, ships and dolls made of tin, cast iron, wood, porcelain or celluloid. The valuable exhibits are in very good condition. Some of the exhibits can even be found in their (original) condition.

A special kind of museum visit

The Boxenstop Museum is much more than just a museum. It is a place to get to know each other. It is a place where adults can become children again and fulfill some long-cherished childhood dreams. Because what is strictly forbidden in other museums is welcome in the Boxenstop Museum. Here, visitors are actually allowed to touch the exhibits and walk around with them. You won't find any barriers here, because it's all about creating an experience.

„Our guests should be able to enjoy the high-quality collection undisturbed,

says Rainer and Ute Klink.
