Things to see in Germany ......

[syncropaddy]

I took this down from the Syncro25 site and its a list of Museums / tours we can go to, when and where. The programme is very full and in true German style there is something going on from 08.00 till bed time every day!

Friday:
09.00am: Excursion “VWN Factory tour” Hanover (meet at Restaurant)

At 9am the participants start at Mammutpark to drive to Hanover. There you´ll have a factory tour through the production of T5 and Porsche Panamera including an introduction of VW history, focusing on the commercial section. Late arrivals can come directly to Hanover and meet with the convoy from Mammutpark. I´ll get a map of the factory which i can upload so that anybody knows exactly where to meet.

Saturday:
07.30 am: Tour to “Maikäfertreffen” Hanover (meeting at Restaurant)

Again, start at Mammutpark and driving to Hanover in a group. It´s a huge beetle / VW Aircooled meeting and we are allowed to go there as well. I assume it´s a full day excursion, as it´s a huge meeting with lots to see and then you´ll drive back to Mammutpark

or

12.00 am: 1st Excursion to Bullimuseum (80km) and then a private car collection (German language only. meet at Restaurant, pay fees at museum)

it´s the "Bullimuseum" (split and bay windows, T25s etc.) and it has been opened recently by the "IG T2" (interest group T2 - the bay window). It´s not fully finished yet, but this is a special character for a museum as well and you can buy a cubic meter of the museum as well. The private VW veteran collection is from the Grundmann family, probably the most exclusive VW collection in Germany. They might push a "Schwimmwagen" into the river Weser as well!!!

Sunday:
10.30 am: 2nd Excursion to Bullimuseum (80km) and private car collection
(also in English, meet at Restaurant, fees to be paid at museum)

Monday:
Excursion “VWN Factory tour” Hanover (at Restaurant) and
continue to "Volkswagenmuseum Wolfsburg" (3,-€ entry fee to be paid at Museum)

At 9am the participants start at Mammutpark to drive to Hanover. There you´ll have a factory tour through the production of T5 and Porsche Panamera including an introduction of VW history, focusing on the commercial section. Late arrivals can come directly to Hanover and meet with the convoy from Mammutpark. Then on to the old VW museum on the Dieselstrasse in Wolfsburg beside the factory. I know a few of us have been here before


In addition to that you can view an up to date programme of the whole event on Henning's website
