A landau (pronounced LAN-dow) is a large four-wheeled carriage with a leather cover that can be folded down, essentially a coach with a falling top. The low shell of the landau provides maximal visibility of the occupants and their attire, a feature that makes a landau a popular choice for ceremonial occasions.
