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.
