Intro

First of all, I wish you a very good year 2024 full of automotive discoveries and meetings with enthusiasts. The passion for cars is still very much alive, as evidenced by the record attendance figures announced by several museums such as the National Automobile Museum in Mulhouse (more than 243,000 visitors), Autoworld Brussels (235,000 visitors) and the 24 Hours of Le Mans Museum (155,000 visitors, including 72,000 for the major Centenary exhibition). This month, Automobile Museums takes you on a journey, to Italy to discover the Stanguellini Museum, to Malta with a new museum referenced, to Austria for the F1 exhibition that takes up residence in Vienna, to the United States for a Woodies exhibition at the Savoy Museum, in England where the British Motor Museum explores automotive innovations, and in France with the presentation of Rétromobile Paris and the Museum “The Street of passing time“. Have a good trip and happy reading!

Info on web site

The update of the site continues with a few small additions here and there, but above all a complete update of the page of the Abarth Museum in Savigny-les-Beaune, with more information and photos, and a new country that is added to the list, Malta and its Automobile Collection in Valletta. Another new French museum is referenced, The Street of passing time in the Périgord. There are now 96 museums listed on the Automobile-Museums website!

Visit of the month

Less well-known than Ferrari or Lamborghini, the Stanguellini Museum is nonetheless worth a visit because it exhibits many interesting cars, in-house and iconic sports productions.
