In 1817, Karl Freiherr von Drais invented a two-wheeled Laufmaschine (draisine or velocipede) and took it for a ride around Mannheim. On the occasion of its 200-year anniversary, Germany and especially the region of Baden-Wuerttemberg, where Mannheim is located, celebrated Freiherr von Drais’s invention, as well as the volatile history and development of the bicycle with exhibitions, ceremonies, conferences and more. This book is the catalogue for the exhibition at the TECHNOMUSEUM Landesmuseum für Technik und Arbeit in Mannheim. This is important, because the whole structure of the book, as well as its content, is tailored to accompany the display.
