Planning your visit
The Automobil Museum Frey in Augsburg holds the largest Mazda collection outside Japan — around 50 vehicles on display from a collection of considerably more, assembled by a family who have been Mazda dealers for decades, housed in a historic tram depot.
The technical thread running through it is the Wankel rotary engine. Mazda was effectively the only manufacturer to commit to rotary production at scale and persist with it, and the collection covers that history from the 1967 Cosmo Sport — one of the first rotary production cars, and extremely rare — through the RX series to the Le Mans-winning 787B era.
Beyond the rotaries, the collection covers the company's full range including its earliest three-wheeled trucks, and material on the firm's history in Hiroshima.
The depot doubles as an event venue, hosting yoga, wine and other functions among the cars. Allow ninety minutes. Bookable options include event experiences at the museum. Current availability is listed below.
