    Platform with information about the circuit used in the 1920s. This one is overgrown. At this place you can use information boards to get a good idea of ​​the past use and catch a glimpse of a piece of the remains.

      You must visit the Alte Opel racecourse. After all, it is a document of the industrial history of the Rhine-Main region and the information boards on the observation deck describe in great detail the trend-setting development of automobile construction in the decade after the First World War.
      Although you can not go around the entire oval of the test track, but still passable sections give the impression of the size of this imposing structure.

        Automotive history in a dry sleep:

        The Opel Rennbahn is located about 2 km south of Rüsselsheim in a small forest. Much of the railway is overgrown with trees and bushes. A small part of the track has been painstakingly cleared and can be viewed from an iron footbridge. You can immerse yourself in the past of the Opel racetrack using the existing information boards with plenty of information material.
