If you have the opportunity to visit Germany and stop by Stuttgart, you should visit the Porsche museum in this city. This is where the collection of cars and technologies that have made history for the Porsche brand and the automotive industry as a whole are preserved.
The Porsche 64 model, also known as Type 64.
The museum is located not far from the main headquarters of Porsche in Stuttgart. The museum was designed by the famous architect firm Delugan Meissl from Austria. However, the interior exhibition space was designed by the legendary German designer, HG Merz, who sketched and transformed the Porsche museum into a vibrant dictionary that documents the milestones of the brand’s development.

With the aforementioned combination, the Porsche museum has a structure like a story, and visitors can explore it according to each historical milestone. Through this, visitors can understand the messages of the Porsche brand in different periods, the development over the years, as well as the directions and ideas for the future.
For example, by looking at the Porsche Type 64 model designed by Ferdinand Porsche in 1939, museum visitors can easily recognize the similarities with the Porsche 911 of today. Even people who know nothing about cars can recognize that Porsche cars have been developed based on a long-lasting shared genetic code. This is something that is hard to find in other car brands.
