has been in the process of rebuilding its museum for the last nine months and plans to finally open the new complex on November 26. It has not released any actual pictures of the new building yet, but it has created these cute images using toys and model cars. The new museum is built on the location of the original Skoda factory and consists of over 1,800m².

The new Skoda Museum is a widely visible symbol of the importance of the Skoda brand, and it is sure to delight its visitors. We are proud of our history. In the years ahead, Skoda is set to grow worldwide. When you are overtaking others, you need to look into your rear-view mirror regularly," said Skoda Chairman of the Board Dr. Winfried Vahland.

The building was designed by Jangles Nerves Architects from Stuttgart, Germany, and they have made it a goal to make the new museum incorporate natural light and modern design, but still include portions of the original factory. The upgrade also includes all new electrical systems, lighting and air-conditioning.

There is also the new 930m² Laurin & Klement Hall that will be used for special events and model unveilings.
