AVUS

The Automobil-Verkehrs- und Übungsstraße ('Automobile traffic and training road'), better known as AVUS, is a public road in Berlin, Germany. Opened in 1921, it is the oldest controlled-access highway in Europe, which until 1998 was also used as a motor racing circuit. Today the AVUS forms the northern part of the Bundesautobahn 115.
