Although this place is not huge, the three floors are packed full of interesting technological specimens. The entire museum is tacked tight with interesting things to see. My absolute favourite is the vintage motorcycle collection. They have a motorcycle for display that was built in 1914 - the oldest machine in their entire(?) collection. They have model trains, engines, cars, and toys in shelves all round the museum. Old vintage cars are on display on just about every floor - including one of the first ever Mercedes.

The Boxenstop is a time capsule that gives visitors a taste of a time that has gone by. The place is full of tidbits that tell a story in their own rights and that's not counting the rare collection of cars, bikes and related memorabilia.
Go to the Boxenstop for a unique experience that one just does not expect to find anymore. The hospitality of the host family is warm and friendly. The food at the on site restaurant was a surprise with high class service. On sunny days ask for seating outside on the outdoor balcony if possible.
