Oldtimer Tankstelle Brandshof

Grosstankstelle / Oldtimer‑Tankstelle Brandshof is a restored 1953 filling station in Rothenburgsort, Hamburg, now operating as a GTÜ partner for classic‑car inspections and a community venue. The site combines vehicle testing services (HU/AU, H‑plates, value reports) with a 1950s‑style café called the Erfrischungsraum.

The venue hosts regular classic‑car meetups and themed events and is run by Piatscheck & de Boer GmbH. Practical visitor services include a Zulassungsservice and takeaway food/drinks from the café; check the website for event dates and opening hours before you go.

A compact mix of heritage architecture, technical services and a retro café atmosphere.

Look out for:

• The 1953 denkmalgeschützte station building and restored period signage.

• GTÜ Prüfstelle services focused on youngtimers and oldtimers (HU/AU, H‑plates, value reports).

• The Erfrischungsraum: 1950s–style breakfast and daily lunch, plus takeaway.

• Regular classic‑car meetups and occasional marquee events—calendar on the website.

Best way to experience it:

Plan a weekday visit if you need inspection services (Prüfstelle open Mon–Fri; limited Sat HU only) and arrive earlier in the day for breakfast or to catch classic‑car gatherings. Confirm event times and testing appointments via the official site or phone.

• The site is a working Prüfstelle—book or confirm inspection slots in advance if needed.

• Café hours differ from testing hours; check the website for current opening times.

• Events and meetups are scheduled separately—consult the online calendar before visiting.

• Contact details and operator info are on the official site (tankwart@tankstelle-brandshof.de).
