Steiff Museum

Does anyone know if there is any way to get from Frankfurt to the Steiff Museum in Giengen an der Brenz in a day. Can't take the train because there is no afternoon return trip. Can't rent a car (even if I wanted to which I don't really) because there is a 3-day minimum.

The museum looks wonderful!!!!!!

What do you mean there is a 3-day minimum to rent a car?

If you know otherwise please tell me - when I go on the train schedule the latest train leaving Giengen an der Brenz to Frankfurt shows it leaving at 14:00 - which - when I wouldn't get there until about 11:00 isn't really enough time. As for the car - I am from the US - and any of the sites I try whenever I try to reserve a car for less than three days will not let me.

Check www.bahn.de for rail connections.
Latest connection from Giengen to Frankfurt (and arrives in Frankfurt before midnight) leaves Giengen at 8.08pm

Yes, the Bahn.de schedule shows departures from Giengen at 16:06, 17:08, 18:08, 19:08, and 20:08.

Maybe you aren't reading it correctly?

Or maybe I just don't have the right stop? It does show more than one stop in Giengen - which one would I want?
