Switzerland’s BIGGEST Vintage Machinery Show | Weiach Historik 2026

Step inside Weiach Historik 2026, one of Europe’s most spectacular vintage machinery events, held only every few years inside the massive quarry of Weiacher Kies AG in Switzerland. For two unforgettable days, the quarry transforms into a living industrial time capsule filled with smoke, diesel thunder, steel tracks, hydraulic power, and hundreds of historic machines from multiple eras. Filmed this weekend, this video captures the incredible atmosphere of a gigantic historic worksite where many of the exhibited machines are not only displayed, but fully operated under real working conditions. Bulldozers crawl across gravel hills, excavators swing tons of material, vintage trucks move through the quarry, cranes lift heavy loads, and classic diesel engines shake the ground with raw mechanical power. Featured machines include legendary Caterpillar giants such as the Caterpillar 983, Caterpillar D9G, Caterpillar 245, and Caterpillar D5, alongside countless tracked vehicles and heavy machines from other historic manufacturers. The event also features bulldozers, track loaders, graders, compactors, jackhammers, pipe-laying operations, crane demonstrations, stone crushers, and even a small diesel-powered railway operating inside the quarry. You’ll also witness the unloading of rare vintage excavators, authentic heavy equipment demonstrations, and an incredible gathering of classic construction machinery and historic trucks rarely seen in one place. Weiach Historik is far more than a static exhibition. It is a full-scale industrial spectacle where historic machinery comes alive exactly as it did decades ago.
