The Alfa Romeo Automotive Museum
The Alfa Romeo Automotive Museum

Since late 19th and early 20th century, the core of the Italian automotive production is spread between the surroundings of Turin, where the seat of FCA Group (Fiat-Chrysler Automobiles) is located and the area known as 'Motor Valley', running largely between the provinces of Modena and Bologna where some of the jewels in the car sector - Ferrari, Maserati and Lamborghini - are designed and produced. However, different areas in Northern Italy boast a vast array of car museums, where car lovers can discover the most iconic pieces of the Italian motoring history.

A map of these venues follows

After touring the museum, visitors can access an immersive room where they can watch a series of short 4D films dedicated to Alfa’s legendary successes.
