Found an interesting article about the Lamborghini museum outside Bologna, Italy. The article was written by a person that doesn’t really get too excited about cars, but it is detailed enough to make me rethink the locale for any future vacations. Enjoy!
Even if you’re not a hard-core automotive enthusiast, the name Lamborghini will no doubt be familiar to you. This famous car maker in Italy has been producing some of the most sought-after luxury sports cars in the world for decades - and if you do happen to be a car nut, you’ll be pleased to know that the Lamborghini Museum outside Bologna is an excellent addition to your Italy itinerary.
Lamborghini has been based in the village of Sant’Agata Bolognese, about 21 miles from Bologna, since the company was born in 1963, and that’s still where the cars are made today. But in addition to the Lamborghini factory, the complex at Sant’Agata Bolognese also includes a top-notch museum of Lamborghinis, from vintage cars to race cars to concept cars. The two best things about the Lamborghini museum, opened in 2001, used to be the window overlooking the factory floor so you can see the cars actually being made, and the lack of an admission fee (I used to think that was the only thing Lamborghini had its name on that didn’t cost a small fortune), but according to the official website there’s now an admission fee. Well, at least the factory window is still there. More here.
