History

ACE Auto Club Europa was founded on 16 July 1965 during the transport exhibition in Munich. The association emerged from the GUV, the Gewerkschaftliche Unterstützungskasse für Verkehrsberufe. Its name 'Auto Club Europa' reflects both trade-union solidarity across national borders and the enthusiasm for Europe in the 1950s and 1960s. Only a few hours after the association's founding, the first member registered: Richard Weichler from Dietzenbach in Hesse. Since its founding in 1965, the club states that it has engaged for road safety, taken positions on transport policy, and supported its members with advice and assistance.
