The Auto-Union Veteranen Club was established in Germany in 1972 for enthusiasts of Auto-Union vehicles, covering Audi, DKW, Horch and Wanderer. The club's stated objective is "the maintenance and the faithful restoration of historic vehicles of the brands Audi, DKW, Horch and Wanderer, which merged to form Auto-Union in 1932. Furthermore, we see it as our task to collect any material about these vehicles and the former manufacturers in order to make a total contribution to the documentation of German motorcycle and automotive history."
The club is very active today and closely associated with Audi Tradition.
AUVC has a website and forum here: http://auvc-forum.org/

Most of the content is in German but international enthusiasts also participate. Thank you to the great 'auto-translate' services which make so much of this material available to non-German speakers.
AUVC produces an extremely high quality magazine style newsletter, Club Nachrichten. This magazine contains many well researched articles, archival documents and photos. In order to make this content available to enthusiasts this blog contains an archive of magazines from the 1980s to early 2000s. I claim no right to any of these materials and all content belongs to the AUVC and the authors. Check out the archive here: https://auvc-archive.blogspot.com/
Wherever you are located, if you are an Auto-Union enthusiast, I recommend joining AUVC formally, or via their Facebook page above.
