The Sinsheim and Speyer Tecknik Museums south of Frankfurt were on my todo list for a while and I finally got the chance to go. The car and plane collections are good, plus plenty of other tech stuff, but the highlight is of course the only Tupolev 144 (aka Concordeski since it was designed and built with stolen blueprints of the concorde) on the western side. For extra bonus points, it's literally in front of a concorde so you can compare and contrast, doesn't get better than that.

The TU-144 looked similar, outside of its canard in the front:

that plane did not manage to fly there, had to go by boat and truck
