Donors and contributors
The Automobile World Eisenach Foundation pursues the public welfare-oriented purpose of preserving the tradition of automobile construction in Eisenach, as defined by the founders, which is anchored in the statutes and is to be fulfilled by the income from the foundation’s assets.

You too can support the work of the foundation.

With a donation, you increase the funds provided for the timely fulfilment of the purpose in order to directly fulfil projects and objectives. The Foundation’s immediate goals include the further development of the exhibition in line with our utilisation concept, the collection of automobiles and the structural expansion of the museum and archive.

A second way to support our work is through endowments. These increase the foundation’s share capital and thus permanently increase the foundation’s income; they have a sustainable and long-term effect.

Another form of support is to set up your own (dependent) fiduciary foundation. This allows you to transfer a specific special fund to be managed separately from the foundation and determine the use of the income generated from it under the name you specify for this separate foundation
