Situated in the heart of the so-called “Italian Motor Valley”, the Ferrari Museum in Maranello is one of the most captivating destinations for car enthusiasts and attracts countless visitors from Italy and abroad. Motor Valley, known in Italian as the Land of Motors, is an industrial district in Emilia-Romagna renowned as the cradle of some of the most historic car and motorcycle manufacturers. The area in question extends from the province of Parma to Rimini, along the Via Emilia, and is home to companies such as Maserati, Pagani, Lamborghini, Ducati, Dallara, De Tomaso, Stanguellini, Tazzari and Ferrari.
It was in this context that the Ferrari Museum in Maranello was created, situated just a short distance from the manufacturing plants and telling the story of the company since its foundation in 1947. This museum site is therefore a celebration of the brand, considered one of the most famous and iconic in the world, and offers visitors the opportunity to discover its history and development. Opened in 1990, through an original and engaging route, the Ferrari Museum in Maranello allows you to admire an extensive collection of historic cars, trophies, engines and other objects that tell the legend of the Prancing Horse.
The Ferrari Museum in Maranello opened in 1990 as the Ferrari Gallery to promote and celebrate the brand that made Italian automotive history. The choice of Maranello as the museum’s location is no coincidence: it was here in Maranello in 1947 that Enzo Ferrari founded his car company, and to this day the factory and Formula 1 racing team are still based here.
Over the years the museum has undergone various expansions and renovations to accommodate an ever-increasing number of visitors and expand its exhibitions. Notably, in 2013 the museum underwent a major renovation that not only saw the site renamed from Gallery to Ferrari Museum but also expanded the exhibition area and created new interactive spaces.
The Ferrari Museum in Maranello offers its visitors a unique experience and a true journey through time amongst the cars that have made Ferrari history. One of the museum’s main attractions is the collection of historic and modern cars that, starting from the first vehicles produced in the 1940s, shows the brand’s development through to its latest creations. Visitors can discover up close iconic models such as the 250 GTO, the Testarossa, the F40 and the Ferrari Enzo. Additionally, some of the most celebrated single-seaters that triumphed in Formula 1 races and championships are also on display. Starting from the first Alfa Romeo 8C 2300 Spider, you arrive at the Ferrari SF71H, the single-seater with which Kimi Räikkönen and Sebastian Vettel competed in 2018.
Enthusiasts will find the section dedicated to engines and innovative technologies studied and developed by the Maranello car manufacturer truly fascinating. From the early Colombo V12 engines, designed for sports cars in the late 1940s, to the advanced hybrid powerplants of modern cars. Here it is possible to follow a route to discover the strong connection between research, development and Ferrari performance by admiring the models that played a pioneering role in technological evolution.
A section of the museum houses the “Hall of Victories” with an extensive collection of trophies, medals and accolades that tell the story of Ferrari’s successes over the decades in Formula 1 championships, the 24 Hours of Le Mans and other competitions. Additionally, there are racing and personal items from legendary drivers such as Michael Schumacher, Niki Lauda and Gilles Villeneuve. Those who want to experience the thrill of driving a Ferrari single-seater can also test the Formula 1 simulator to race across some of the world’s most famous circuits.
By booking in advance on the website, it is also possible to enjoy an exclusive panoramic tour by shuttle along Enzo Ferrari Avenue and inside the Fiorano Track to learn more about the characteristics and contents of the site and circuit.
