Rostlaube Dresden
Overview
Rostlaube Dresden rents self‑drive classic cars — Trabant, Wartburg, Lada and Western classics — plus themed Erlebnisfahrten and vouchers. The fleet includes convertibles and Targa models; bookings and gift certificates are handled via the office.
Vehicles are insured and come with roadside protection, but rentals have a deductible and are generally restricted to Dresden and nearby roads. The office is on Konkordienstraße with nearby tram stops and on‑street parking; weekend rentals are by arrangement.
What to Expect
Choose a vehicle from a mixed fleet of Eastern Bloc icons and Western classics, then pick a timed rental or a themed two‑hour Erlebnisfahrt (approx. 70 km included as listed on the site).
Look out for:
- Iconic models such as Trabant, Wartburg, Lada, Moskwitsch and a Porsche 924 Targa.
- Two‑hour Erlebnisfahrten with a suggested ~70 km route (additional distance options on the rates page).
- Cross‑promotions with adjacent retro accommodation and themed caravans.
- A smartphone tour app to guide scenic routes around Dresden.
Best way to experience it:
Book in advance via email or phone, choose a short scenic route around Dresden to avoid Autobahn use (insurance discourages highway travel), and pair the rental with a nearby themed stay for a full retro weekend.
Things to Note
- Bookings and voucher purchases handled by phone or email; check availability in advance.
- Vehicles are insured but carry a stated deductible (self‑inflicted damage applies).
- Autobahn use is discouraged and rentals are generally limited to Dresden/nearby areas for insurance reasons.
- Office hours vary; weekend pickups are usually by arrangement—confirm times before you travel.
