Die Auto Union AG - Spurensuche Ost

The founding of Auto Union AG in 1932 was the first state-owned German automobile company, which united the car manufacturers Audi, DKW, Horch and Wanderer, which had been hit hard by the global economic crisis, rehabilitated them and led them to new heights. The brand's headquarters were in Chemnitz, although the company's administration was housed in the DKW headquarters in Zschopau in the early years.

Even today there are numerous architectural testimonies of the Auto Union in Saxony that have survived the bombing war, dismantling and planned economy - some renovated at great expense, but some left to decay and with an uncertain future.

The historian Martin Kukowski and the photographer Stefan Warter go on a search for clues and document the current state with impressive photos, accompanied by expert historical classification and photo documents from the archives.

Die Auto Union GmbH - Spurensuche Ingolstadt

After the Second World War, there were still numerous vehicles from Auto Union AG on German roads, but the company was dissolved in 1948. The demand for spare parts and new cars was high, so in 1949 a new company was founded with headquarters in Ingolstadt: Auto Union GmbH. After several takeovers, today's Audi AG emerged.

Anyone who walks through the city with their eyes open can still find numerous architectural witnesses to the early years, even today, 70 years after the company was founded. In impressive photos, accompanied by expert historical classification and photo documents from the archives, this volume shows the current state of the buildings and invites you on an exciting journey of discovery.
