Two Days All About Classic Cars

The Oldtimer Stammtisch Kulmbach (OSK) invites you to its traditional double event in the Upper Franconian beer city of Kulmbach (Bavaria) on a June weekend. The Plassenburg Classic kicks things off on Saturday – a guided pleasure drive with historic vehicles through the Franconian landscape. On Sunday, the crowd-pulling highlight follows with the Kulmbach Oldtimer-Treffen, which will celebrate its 29th edition in 2026.

The Plassenburg Classic – Pleasure Drive

On Saturday's drive, the focus is not on speed, but on enjoyment: participants leisurely explore the cultural and culinary landscape of Franconia with their classics, guided by a roadbook. The number of participants is limited, giving the drive an exclusive character. The start is at the Kulmbacher Mönchshof on Hofer Straße 20.

The 29th Kulmbach Oldtimer-Treffen

On Sunday, the event grounds transform into an open-air stage for historic vehicles. In 2026, the meeting will move to the grounds on Lichtenfelser Straße (near GLOBUS-BAUMARKT/TEDOX). Visitors can stroll among lovingly maintained classic and youngtimer cars and chat with the owners – a festival for the whole family.

Atmosphere

Chrome, engine noise, and the scent of old leather upholstery: The Kulmbach classic car weekend combines the fascination of historic technology with Franconian hospitality. The Mönchshof as the starting point, with the Bavarian Brewery Museum, underscores the regional character – classic car culture meets Kulmbach brewing tradition.
