Trissl seeks to connect other Porsche collectors and enthusiasts with the car of their dreams. Each car in the collection has a story and during our private tour we will learn what makes Porsche such a great car. We are very grateful to Trissl for giving our Heart of Dixie chapter this type of access so you don’t want to miss out. And it’s free!!
After our Trissl tour has completed we will make a short drive to downtown Florence for lunch at City Hardware Restaurant. http://www.cityhardwareflorence.com/
After lunch, it’s another short drive to the Rosenbaum Home. The Rosenbaum Home (http://wrightinalabama.com/) is the only Frank Lloyd Wright structure ever built in Alabama. Built in 1940, the house is considered one of the finest examples of a “Usonian” home ever built. Cost is only $5 per person and they do accept credit cards.
