Inaugurated on 10 March 2012 at the behest of the Enzo Ferrari Foundation, the Enzo Ferrari Museum contains two distinct and complementary realities: the Alfredo Ferrari Mechanical Workshop, the architectural center of the entire area, and the new exhibition gallery, the famous “bonnet” of yellow aluminum, which surrounds the birthplace. It is a futuristic building, built according to criteria of environmental sustainability, and designed by the architect Jan Kaplicky.

Inside the “Officina Meccanica Alfredo Ferrari“, the place where Enzo’s father worked and now perfectly restored, it is possible to visit the Ferrari Motors Museum. A unique place, where you can discover the engines that have made the history of the Prancing Horse, from the most experimental to those applied to the road cars. In this small structure, some rooms of the Enzo’s house were rebuilt, so that the visitor can get to know the life, the places and the genius of the creator of the Prancing Horse.

The futuristic exhibition pavilion, created in the shape of a yellow bonnet to recall the color that Enzo Ferrari chose as the backdrop for the famous brand of the Prancing Horse, houses a newly built area that covers, with sweet and wavy shapes, the 5 thousand square meters of exposure.

Every 30 minutes, this totally unique, pristine-white space is transformed into a wraparound projection room as images of the people that made Ferrari and Ferrari’s history itself rush by on its walls and ceilings.

Among the many activities that can be done at the Enzo Ferrari Museum in Modena we suggest to try the semi-professional driving simulator which allow visitors to experience the exhilaration of driving a Ferrari Formula 1 single-seater on some of the world’s most famous circuits such as Monza, Barcelona, Silverstone, Imola, Nürbürgring, Zandvoort, SPA Francorchamps, and Mugello.

But the driving emotions do not end with a virtual experience. The Ferrari museums, together with the Modena racetrack, reserve their visitors the opportunity to really test their skills on a racing track. Just presenting your Ferrari Museum ticket at the Autodromo di Modena you can enjoy 15 minutes of exhilarating circuit time in your own car at a discounted price of just 35 euro.

All aspiring pilots will have a hostess and a professional driver who will give them a rundown on the track’s main features and the requisite safety measures. For all those who want to extend the excitement, it will be possible to request an extension of the laps for € 2.50 a minute.

For all those who are instead interested in discovering the Modena food and tradition there is the opportunity to buy the passport of the Discover Ferrari and Pavarotti Land, an all-day full immersion in history, taste and personalities of Modena and that includes: the entrance to the Ferrari Museums in both Maranello and Modena, the entrance to the Casa Museo Luciano Pavarotti museum, guided tours and tastings at least two of the participating businesses which represent the area’s superb reputation in traditional balsamic vinegar, Lambrusco wine and smoked meat production, and a connecting bus service with both Modena Railway Station and Bologna Bus Station.

Inside the structure of the Enzo Ferrari Museum in Modena, it is also possible to take advantage of a program to introduce children and teens to the Ferrari Legend, its beginnings and long history. The educational routes, suitable for different ages and different study programs, can range from science, technology, art, history, sport, and economics.
