Schneider, who helped found the German electronic music group in 1970, died in 2020. Among the items now being sold are also the bicycle he used in the music video for "Tour de France", and the flute that appears on the back of the band's debut album. Synthesizers used to create the robot voices Kraftwerk used live will also be sold by the company Julien's Auctions in Nashville, USA, on November 18.

Florian Schneider left the band in 2008.

This summer, Kraftwerk played at Rosendal Garden Party in Stockholm.
