Maranello and Ferrari, from the Museo Ferrari to Enzo's house in Modena

Getting there

The motorhome sleeps in Modena, or in one of the two small areas near Maranello, and you go to the museum for the day: in front of the Museo Ferrari there is no place for motorhomes, the two car parks nearby are meant for cars, and the P4 closes at 19:30.

• At Maranello, the car park in front of the museum has about fifty places for cars, at 1 euro an hour from 9:00 to 12:00 and from 14:00 to 18:00. The P4 in via Fornace, free and reserved for museum visitors, 160 metres away, is open from 10:00 to 19:30, half an hour after the museum in winter: whether a motorhome fits in it the museum does not say, and it is best to ask first. For coaches there are three separate car parks, the P3 in via Ignazio Giunti free
• To sleep near Maranello there are two small areas a few kilometres from the museum: the one at Torre Maina, in the hills on the Tiepido stream, ten places with electricity at 7 euros for the day, and the one of the Camper Club of Fiorano Modenese, in via Cameazzo, free with services paid by token and no toilets
• In Modena, the Museo Enzo Ferrari has a free car park behind it, at via Giuseppe Soli 101, about sixty metres away; here too, whether a motorhome fits is not written. The museum is a few minutes on foot from the station
• Without the motorhome: from Modena station a private shuttle goes to the Museo Ferrari in Maranello at 10:40 and at 15:20, and comes back at 14:45 and at 18:00, in less than half an hour. It costs 6 euros a journey, and Trenitalia Tper sells it only together with a train ticket
• On the days of the Mezza d'Italia, the half marathon from Maranello to Modena, the square in front of the museum and the P4 close: in 2026 they were from 26 to 29 March

Notes

• The tickets, read on the museums' website on 20 October 2026, change with the season. From October to April one museum costs 27 euros, reduced 22, for students and over 65; young people under 19 accompanied by a family member pay 9 euros, and up to 5 it is free. From May to September 32, 24 and 12 euros. The Musei Ferrari Pass, with the two museums, costs 38 euros in winter and 42 in summer, and 12 and 18 for young people. There is no family ticket: two adults and two young people, in winter, spend 72 euros for one museum and 100 with the Pass. Online the reseller's fee is added
• The opening hours of the two museums are the same: from November to March from 9:30 to 18:00, with last entry at 17:15; in April and May, in September and October from 9:30 to 19:00; from June to August from 9:00 to 19:00. They are open every day, closed only on 25 December and 1 January. Once you leave you cannot go back in
• The Museo Ferrari in Maranello, at via Alfredo Dino Ferrari 43: the route begins with the origins and the workshop from 1947, then the road cars, the cars made to measure for a single customer, the history of the Fiorano track. The hall to look for is "Scuderia Ferrari, la storia completa", with the Formula 1 single-seaters and the victories with the closed-wheel racing cars. "Roaring 50" tells the story of the Aeroautodromo di Modena, the circuit that ran around the city's airport from 1950 to 1976, with the 166 MM of 1948 and the 315 S that Piero Taruffi drove to victory in the last Mille Miglia, in 1957. For winter 2026-2027 no new exhibitions have been announced
• The tour of the track and the factory, which the museum calls the Tour Panoramico: a shuttle with a guide, in Italian and in English, goes into the Fiorano track and along viale Enzo Ferrari inside the factory, between the buildings by Renzo Piano, Massimiliano Fuksas, Jean Nouvel and Mario Cucinella and the old entrance of 1947. It lasts 45 minutes, you do not get off and you do not take photographs. It costs 25 euros, reduced 20, and 7 for young people under 19; the museum is paid separately. It leaves from in front of the museum entrance at 12:30 and at 13:30, and at the end of October 2026 also at 11:30. The museum warns that the tour can be cancelled up to the last moment, when the track or the factory are needed. The real factory, with the assembly lines, Ferrari opens only to customers and sponsors
• The simulators, outside the halls, are done before or after the visit and paid separately: at Maranello the Formula 1 one, seven minutes of driving on a circuit of your choice, 30 euros; in Modena a grand tourer one, 25 euros. The rules require a height of one metre fifty and a maximum of 120 kilos: it is the limit that stops the youngest children, not age
• The Museo Enzo Ferrari in Modena, at via Paolo Ferrari 85: two buildings. Kaplický's yellow pavilion, with its bonnet-shaped roof and all white inside, houses until 16 February 2027 the exhibition "The Greatest Hits", on musicians' Ferraris, from Herbert von Karajan's 250 GT Lusso to the SP12 made for Eric Clapton. In the house where Enzo Ferrari was born, restored, is the workshop where his father Alfredo worked at the beginning of the twentieth century, with the exhibition "Motori", engines: the twelve-cylinders, the eight-cylinders and Formula 1, and a film in which Enzo Ferrari talks about them. There are a café and a shop
• For children, free with the ticket and to be booked: at Maranello the workshop for 4 to 11 year olds, the next one on 14 November 2026; in Modena the treasure hunt with a prize for 5 to 12 year olds, without booking, on 26 December 2026. On the first Sunday of the month there are free guided tours, at Maranello at 11:00 and in Modena at 14:00, in sign language too: on 1 November and 6 December 2026. The 2027 dates have not yet been published
• The Ristorante Cavallino, opposite the factory entrance, is where Enzo Ferrari used to eat, today with Massimo Bottura's cooking: book on 0536 944877, and it is closed on Sunday evenings, and for the holidays from 24 to 26 December 2026 and from 1 to 15 January 2027. In via Alfredo Dino Ferrari, in front of the museum, private shops rent out a Ferrari for a few minutes of driving on the road with an instructor: they are not Ferrari's, and they usually require you to be 21 and to hold a driving licence
• The other museums of the Motor Valley, if one day is not enough: the Museo Lamborghini at Sant'Agata Bolognese, open every day, in winter from 9:30 to 18:00; the Museo Pagani at San Cesario sul Panaro, 18 euros, 15 under 18, free under 12; the Collezione Maserati Umberto Panini, at Marzaglia, on the edge of Modena, 15 euros, 12 under 18, free under 8; the Museo Ducati at Borgo Panigale, on the edge of Bologna, closed on Wednesdays, 18 euros with the ticket bought only online, free under 11
