This spectacular event is part of the 29th vintage car rally hosted by ADAC Hessen-Thuringia, a spectacle that's intriguing enthusiasts for over two decades.

Adjust your shades and prepare yourself for a journey through the decades, as these four-wheeled beauties spanning from the 1930s to the turn of the millennium grace the roads of Thuringia. The rally takes participants on an unforgettable tour, traversing the diverse landscapes of the Thuringian Sea, the Ore Mountains, and the Thuringian Forest.

In addition to spectacular scenic drives, vintage car pilots can put their metal to the test with various special challenges along the way, making this an exhilarating experience for all involved, according to the mighty ADAC.

"Nowhere else can you witness the historical development and technical progress of four-wheeled vehicles as concentrated as at an ADAC vintage car rally," says Oliver Reidegeld, spokesperson for ADAC Hessen-Thuringia. "Unlike a museum, these vehicles are in action on the street. They are lovingly maintained by their owners."
