VW Käfer Museum Aarburg

The VW Käfer Museum Aarburg displays a private collection of roughly 15 Volkswagen Beetles spanning key development years (c.1950–1975). The collection was assembled by Hans Peter Nething and opened to the public in 2015.

Visits are by prior arrangement rather than walk‑in hours, and the museum operates from a hall on Feldstrasse in Aarburg. The site is locally listed as easy to reach by car with free parking beside the Turnhalle.

A compact, focused visit for Beetle enthusiasts and automotive history fans.

Look out for:

• A chronological cross‑section of about 15 VW Beetles showing styling and technical changes.

• Background information on the collector and the museum’s founding (opened 2015).

• Intimate viewing conditions—cars displayed in a former gym/hall rather than a large commercial museum.

• Monthly owner/enthusiast meetups (first Sunday of the month, usually except August).

Best way to experience it:

Book a visit in advance by email, allow around 1–1.5 hours to see the cars and ask the host questions; small groups and private rentals are available on request.
