Automobilwerk Eisenach was a car manufacturer in Eisenach in Thuringia, Germany. Founded in 1896, the factory was taken over by Bayerische Motoren Werken (BMW) in 1928 and nationalised after World War II. Before German reunification in 1990, Thuringia was part of the former Deutsche Demokratische Republik (GDR).
In 1953, the factory was given the final name VEB Automobilwerk Eisenach and produced cars under the Wartburg name from 1955. In 1991, the company closed down. At the same time, Opel opened a plant in Eisenach, continuing the tradition of car manufacturing in the city.
The boot lid of this Wartburg is believed to be a Wartburg 312 Coupe Cabriolet.
The car's logo features both the names Eisenachter and Eisenach.
EMW, Eisenacher Motoren Werk, was the forerunner of Eisenach was an engine and machinery manufacturer. The train in the logo also seems to refer to that.
