Wartburg automobiles 1955-1965

Lars Leonhardt is currently probably the most recognized expert on Wartburg automobiles from Eisenach. In his in-depth lecture on the development, production and export of the Wartburg 311/313 model series, he brings together for the first time in-depth lecture on the development, production and export of the Wartburg 311/313 model series, he puts important aspects of operational and economic history into context for the first time.



He presents all body variants of the series as well as the concepts of the possible successor models in detail. What were the export countries for the 311, as it was popularly known? How did people in the GDR come to own a Wartburg? A wealth of previously unpublished photos and graphics make the evening just as exciting as the automotive surprises he presents on the doorstep.


Lecture and discussion: Lars Leonhardt, graduate engineer and automobile historian, Lippstadt
