The Enzo Ferrari House Museum is much more: it is an expression of a region and a manufacturing district that took on a difficult challenge — to transform its industrial history into a work of art. This had already been done in Maranello by the Galleria Ferrari which attracts over 200,000 visitors each year, and in Bologna by the Ducati Museum. In fact, in Modena there is a concentration of out-of-the-ordinary automotive passion. Besides Ferrari and Maserati, over time the city has hosted a whole constellation of manufacturers, coach builders and teams like Stanguellini, Scaglietti and Centro Sud; during the 1950s and 60s, it became a car-racing capital. And so the new pavilion — which seems to wrap around father Alfredo's workshop and the house where Enzo Ferrari was born on February 18,1898 — hosts not only the Ferraris or Alfa Romeos that Ferrari drove as director of Alfa Corse but also Maseratis and Stanguellinis.


Each element fluidly becomes part of something else as if the museum was itself, in turn, one of these beautiful cars
