Welcome to the Technik Museum Speyer - where one sensation chases the next! Just an hour south of Frankfurt, explore technology from underwater to outer space: What does it look like in the belly of a submarine? What does a rescue cruiser need on board? How huge is the jumbo jet? What does the world's largest Welte organ sound like? How did a Chinese steam locomotive get to Speyer or was the Space Shuttle Buran in space? In addition to Europe's largest space and remarkable naval exhibition, discover a wide variety of aircraft, classic old-timers, racing motorcycles, historic fire engines, enormous steam locomotives, mechanical musical instruments, rarities and fashions! Every year in May, the museum comes to life: At Brazzeltag® there are cubic capacity monsters, horsepower giants and curiosities to experience live - for fans of fans.
