Hey all,

My wife, son and I are going to Germany in about a month. I just convinced my wife to take a day and stop in Wolfsburg to visit the factory.

Any suggestions for taking a trip to the factory with a 13 year old son and a wife that's only really humoring me by going...

Thanks,
Chris

I just drove by the Mercedes Corp in Munchen. Building is wall of cars, guide said one of each model ever made is there. Wish I could see the Wolfsburg one. I haven’t seen any aircooled except a manx on a lawn.

The factory is an awesome place for everyone. I went a couple of years ago and had a private tour of the facility. It was soooo cool and so much to look at. I am sure your wife and kid will be entertained no mater what their interest is....lots of cool robots and machines to see. good luck and enjoy!

Not only is the factory there - but Autostadt and the AutoMuseum Volkswagen.

I made my second pilgrimage last week. The Autostadt has a 1937 That is amazing. Close by is a Tatra that inspired much of th VW design
