Hi chaps - wonder if I could ask for some opinions on Motor Museums in Stuttgart....

I help organise 'The Wacky Rally' ... for 2026 we have a new itinerary ending in Maranello/Bologna in Italy with a visit to the Ferrari Museum.

One of our overnight stops en-route will be in Stuttgart, where ralliers can visit the Porsche or the Mercedes Museums.

Can anyone advise how much time you would recommend to visit either...? Just thinking a general tour of either museum, rather than in depth, spend-all-day there type thing...

Very grateful if anyone that has visited, could let me know your thoughts please?

Thanks very much in advance!

Yes Motorworld is worth the visit.

From memory there is ramstein used dealers nearby Lambo and Mclaren

Think you can get a direct train from Porsche to Bobblingen

I live in Ludwigsburg, so very close to both museums.

Both are worth visiting but I would say that the Mercedes Museum is a longer visit than the Porsche Museum. It is bigger and more interactive, the Porsche one is basically one hall with cars. I would say Mercedes is 3 hours to do it properly, but could be done quicker if needed. Porsche is probably 1-1.5 hours, but you could do it in half an hour if pushed.

Be aware that both museums are closed on Mondays.
