The centre of Wolfsburg is unique in Germany. Instead of a medieval city centre, Wolfsburg features a new and modern attraction called the [[Autostadt]]. The old part of the city [[Alt Wolfsburg]] [[:de:Alt-Wolfsburg|(de)]] shows some manor buildings in traditional framework style. Atop a hill by the [[Aller (Germany)|River Aller]] is the [[Wolfsburg Castle]].

The Autostadt is an open-air museum-theme park dedicated to [[automobile]]s owned and operated by Volkswagen. In the center of the park are the pavilions featuring Volkswagen's major brands: Volkswagen and Audi to the north, further south are SEAT, [[Škoda Auto]], Lamborghini, Bentley, [[Bugatti]], and the Premium Clubhouse. Right next to the lagoon is the [[Porsche]] pavilion. The striking Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles pavilion is in the south-east of the park.
The Autostadt also includes a [[planetarium]], a [[Ritz-Carlton]] hotel, the [[Phaeno Science Center]], the largest hands-on science museum in Germany, a water skiing resort, and a private art museum (''[[Kunstmuseum Wolfsburg]]'') specialising in modern and contemporary art.

Another major attraction is the Wolfsburg Water Show, the world's largest water-flame-laser-video fountain show with its up to 70-meter high fountains which was in the Autostadt complex in 2014. The event sometimes can be seen when there are special events in the complex.<ref>{{cite web| url=http://www.niedersachsen-tourism.com/wassershow-wolfsburg |access-date=29 September 2014|title=Water show Wolfsburg: A truly unique experience is provided by the world's largest mobile water-fountain show with its up to 70 meter high fountains.
