Danmarks Nimbus Tourings Motorcykle-Museum

The small Nimbus museum, which is located together with the Industrial Museum in Horsens, is dedicated to the history of the Nimbus motorcycle.

Nimbus was a Danish motorcycle brand which was very popular in Denmark from 1920 until 1960, where the production stopped. The Nimbus factory was founded by Peder Fisker, who also manufactured a very popular vacuum cleaner - Nilfisk.
