The Mercedes-Benz Museum is an automotive museum housed in Stuttgart, Germany.
Stuttgart is home to the Mercedes-Benz brand and the international headquarters of
Daimler AG. The building, which stands directly outside the main gate of the Daimler
factory in Stuttgart-Untertürkheim, was designed by UN Studio. It is based on a unique
cloverleaf concept using three overlapping circles with the centre removed to form a
triangular atrium. The museum was completed and opened in 2006. The building's height
and "double helix" interior were designed to maximise space, providing 16,500 square
metres of exhibition space on a footprint of just 4,800 square metres.
The museum contains more than 160 vehicles, some dating back to the very earliest days
of the motor engine. The museum provides visitors with free audio tours in a variety of
languages. In 2007 the museum was visited by 860,000 people.

The Museum’s sophisticated geometry synthesizes structural and programmatic organizations
resulting in a new landmark building celebrating a legendary car.
The geometric model employed is based on the trefoil organization. The building’s program is
distributed over the surfaces which ascend incrementally from ground level, spiraling around
a central atrium. The Museum experience begins with visitors traveling up through the atrium
to the top floor from where they follow the two main paths that unfold chronologically as they
descend through the building. The two main trajectories, one being the car and truck collection
and the other consisting of historical displays called the Legend rooms, spiral downwards on
the perimeter of the display platforms, intersecting with each other at several points allowing
the visitor to change routes.
