Singen (Hohentwiel)

With about 82 million inhabitants, Germany is the most populous member state of the European Union. Germany's capital and largest metropolis is Berlin, while its largest conurbation is the Ruhr, with its main centres of Dortmund and Essen. The country's other major cities are Hamburg, Munich, Cologne, Frankfurt, Stuttgart, Düsseldorf, Leipzig, Bremen, Dresden, Hannover, and Nuremberg. Elevation ranges from the mountains of the Alps in the south to the shores of the North Sea in the northwest and the Baltic Sea  in the northeast. The forested uplands of central Germany and the lowlands of northern Germany are traversed by such major rivers as the Rhine, Danube and Elbe. Germany's alpine glaciers are experiencing deglaciation. When thinking of Germany, beer, lederhosen and Alpine hats quickly come to mind, but these stereotypes mostly relate to Bavarian culture and do not represent Germany as a whole. Germany is a vast and diverse country with 16 culturally unique states that have been politically united since 1871. Even within states there is often considerable cultural diversity.

The landscapes are very diverse, from the vast forests to the monumental lakes and rivers of the Land.

Baden-Württemberg

In November 2013, the founders Hermann Maier and Gabriela Unbehaun-Maier in cooperation with the city of Singen opened a museum with a unique concept: on 1000 square meters, an exhibition space for precious vintage cars was created in dialogue with art. The swinging, earth-colored building itself is an invention of the architect Daniel Binder, who establishes a connection to the architecture of the Singen volcanic mountain Hohentwiel. The Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung already compared the building with the Guggenheim Museum Bilbaos and certified it landmark potential. The two founders, even passionate lovers of art and oldtimers, had already made a big deal with the opening exhibition "Wachgesküsst": they showed automobiles of the famous Alsatian collection Schlumpf together with works of the Südwestdeutsche Kunststiftung, whose home is the MAC.
