Dear Herpa-Fan,

last weekend, Dietenhofen in Central Franconia became a Mecca for truck and model fans. Since 2006, Herpa has been welcoming fans at its Open House every year in July. What started out as simple factory tour has meanwhile become a big party for model and truck enthusiasts from all over Europe. More than 7,500 visitors broke all Open House records this year.

Next to a factory tour the visitors got to see a truck show with about 30 colorful showtrucks from all over Germany and enjoyed sightseeing tours with the FC Bayern truck and vintage vehicles like the DeLorean DMC-12 from the box-office hit "Back to the Future".

Dioramas and rolling works of art
Especially families enjoyed the little miniature landscapes of the model builders displaying their works of art in various exhibitions. The most popular diorama was judged by the visitors and premiered with a voucher of the model manufacturer Faller.
