Nimbus Motorcycle Museum - 1 |
|
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.
