Trabant Museum

A privately run, interactive museum in Prague–Motol that traces the full production history of the Trabant, from early AWZ models to later 1.1 variants. Displays include multiple vehicles, engines, automobilia and a period workshop setting.

The museum emphasizes hands-on experiences: a cutaway car and driving simulator you can sit in, guided explanations and occasional ride opportunities. Check the official site or call before visiting for current opening times and ticketing information.

Small, focused collection presented in a retro, interactive style. Ideal for car fans and visitors curious about everyday life in former East Germany.

Look out for:

• Rare early AWZ and P70-era Trabant models and later 601/1.1 variants.

• A cutaway car and driving simulator you can sit in for a tactile experience.

• Period workshop/garage displays with engines and maintenance tools.

• East‑German household items and automobilia that contextualize the cars.

Best way to experience it:

Arrive with a sense of curiosity rather than expecting a large museum; allow 45–90 minutes to browse, try the simulator and read exhibit placards. Confirm opening hours and any guided-tour slots on the museum’s website or by phone before you go.

• The museum is in Motol (Prague 5); public transport or a short taxi ride is recommended.

• Opening hours and ticket prices vary by season; check the official site or call ahead.

• Hands-on elements and simulator may have age or safety limits; staff can advise on site.

• Limited on-site parking—use local signage or public transit options.
