The washing device (100) consists of a support frame (10) which is of angular construction, forms a gantry with the wall of a washing hall, has an upright longitudinal member (11) having running wheels (15) and has a displaceable transverse member (12) which is supported with its free end (12a) on a guide rail (20) which is arranged to the side of and above the vehicle to be washed and has a carriage (30) which can move in the longitudinal direction of the transverse member and bears an upright washing brush (35) which can be driven to rotate, is acted on by water and is driven to rotate counter to the direction of the travel movement achieved for the support frame (10) by the advance achieved by the rotating brush (35) when the wall surface of the vehicle is acted on (Fig. 1). <IMAGE>
