Mini Tow-able Trailer by Knaus, The Schwalbennest

Super cute micro-trailers for towing.  And since these are “European” sized, it means that the average American vehicle can tow half a dozen of them!  Kind of like a highway based railroad train.  Ok, not safely, but it is an amusing image.

This trailer was originally built in 1961 by the German trailer company, Knaus. For its 50th anniversary, Knaus is selling the redesigned Schwalbennest in a limited edition retro design.

The diminutive trailer is just over 12 feet long and about 7 feet high. It weighs about 1,245 lbs. and has a maximum load capacity of about 400 lbs. It includes an awning, three windows and a skylight, outdoor lighting, integrated blinds, lights, a two-burner stove and sink, a fold-out work surface, a refrigerator, a four gallon water tank and a gas heater. It sleeps two people on the 4.5 ft. by 7 ft. fold-out bed. The trailer also contains a full wardrobe, storage under and behind the benches and above the dining area.

Each of the “Nests” have a specially designed identification plate with their respective serial number and are equipped with “Swallow” upholstery.  The price of the Schwalbennest is €5,990 or about $7,900. It is currently only available in Europe, Iceland and Great Britain.
