Museo Ferrari, Maranello
Museo Ferrari
The official museum in Maranello, where Ferrari’s headquarters is located. It displays historic F1 race cars and classic sports cars and is a must-see for car enthusiasts.
The Museo Ferrari is in the small town of Maranello, just south of Modena. It sits beside the Ferrari factory and the Fiorano test track. The museum displays historic road cars, F1 championship-winning race cars, trophy halls, and engines, and its exhibitions change themes every year. Visitors can pay for an F1 driving simulator experience, and rental companies at the entrance offer Ferrari test drives (quite expensive, and a driving license is required). You can also buy a combined ticket to visit the Enzo Ferrari Museum in central Modena, the founder’s birthplace, and an official shuttle bus runs between the two. Getting there: take a train from Bologna to Modena, about 30 minutes, then transfer to the shuttle bus for about 25 minutes to Maranello. By car, the trip takes about 50 minutes. Tickets cost roughly 30 euros, and during holidays it is best to book online in advance.
