Oldtimer- und Technikmuseum Perleberg

Housed in a listed 1896 turnhalle, the Oldtimer- und Technikmuseum Perleberg is run by the local club Oldtimerfreunde Perleberg e.V. The collection shows about 50 vehicles and numerous technical exhibits, from motorcycles and tractors to a home-built airplane with a Trabant engine.

The museum is community-driven and best for enthusiasts or curious travellers exploring Brandenburg’s Prignitz region. Regular club events and special opening days supplement the usual Sunday public hours.

Look out for:

• Classic cars and motorcycles spanning mid-20th century German makes.

• Tractors, mopeds, bicycles and workshop tools illustrating rural mechanics.

• Technical curiosities like a home-built airplane powered by a Trabant engine and a horn/fuel-pump collection.

• Club-organised displays and seasonal special events (parts market, oldtimer meetings).

Best way to experience it: Visit on a Sunday afternoon when the museum is usually open to the public, or arrange a group visit with the club in advance to see more of the collection and hear owner stories.

• Typical public opening: Sundays 14:00–17:00; confirm on the official site before visiting.

• The museum is volunteer-run; guided explanations depend on staff availability.

• Access is in a historic building; check mobility needs in advance.

• Special events (parts market, rallies) occur seasonally—dates on the club website.
