The selection of eleven vehicles comes from the collection of entrepreneur Saulius Karosas. The Lithuanian had made a name for himself in classic car circles as a collector of rare pre-war vehicles. He was a loyal friend of the Berlin luxury manufacturer until the end of his life.
Customized car bodies for luxury brands
As a leading manufacturer in German coachbuilding with prominent customers such as Werner von Siemens, Crown Prince Wilhelm and others, the company built individual bodies for Mercedes-Benz, Horch, Maybach and Rolls-Royce, among others, in the first half of the 20th century.
The designers at Erdmann & Rossi even adapted some Bentleys, which actually represent the conservative British style, to the typical German sports car style.
Focus on the heyday of mechanics
The vehicles in the MAC Museum Art & Cars are a reflection of the heyday of mechanics and automobilism in the 1920s and 1930s.
In addition to the luxury coachwork by Erdmann & Rossi, the museum under Singen's local mountain Hohentwiel is also exhibiting other vehicles from the Saulius Karosas collection.
Some of the vehicles, which are valued by connoisseurs at several million francs, can be seen in the gallery
Fine car bodies convey an attitude to life
The luxury car bodies are framed by an exhibition that shows the lifestyle of the big city of Berlin in the 1920s and 1930s.
The exhibition "Noble car bodies of the 20s/30s - Erdmann & Rossi - Saulius Karosas Collection" takes visitors back to the times of the late "Roaring Twenties" and cars that were created far from mass production. You can dream. It's worth it.
The museum is open from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. from Wednesday to Sunday. Monday and Tuesday are closed days. Further information on the Internet.
