Mazda Classic Automobil-Museum Frey is a specialist museum with broader appeal than its subject first suggests. The collection follows Mazda's unusual engineering history, from compact postwar models to rotary-engine sports cars, all displayed in a former tram depot north of Augsburg's centre.
It is a good rainy-day or repeat-visitor stop in a city better known for Renaissance and mercantile history. Car enthusiasts will get the most from the technical details, but the museum also works as a compact design-history detour.
