100 years of the BMW plant Munich
BMW is marking the 100th anniversary of its Munich home plant - on a site that it still occupies . The company started manufacturing its products there in 1922 . Having been prohibited from getting back into the aircraft assembly business by the Treaty of Versailles after WW1 , the first products it made there as " Bayerische Motoren Werke " were aircraft engines and motorcycles . Originally on the outskirts of Munich , the site in the Milbertshofen district is now right in the heart of the metropolis that is Munich . The plant moved on to making cars in 1952 - models such as the highly collectible BMW Isetta . This is an aerial picture of the site from 1930 - check out the steeply banked test track !
