On February 18, in celebration of Enzo Ferrari’s birthday, the Enzo Ferrari Museum in Modena will unveil a groundbreaking new Supercars exhibition. This visually stunning showcase promises to redefine the museum experience, offering an immersive journey into the evolution of Ferrari’s most extraordinary road cars.
Once again, the Enzo Ferrari Museum grants fans and enthusiasts of the Prancing Horse exclusive access to an area typically off-limits: the Ferrari Archive. This invaluable repository has been meticulously curated since the company’s founding in 1947, preserving a legacy of automotive excellence through an extensive collection of historical artefacts. A silent guardian of Ferrari’s past, the Archive reveals the intricate creative processes behind some of the most celebrated supercars in history.
For the first time, this hidden treasure is partially unveiled through a state-of-the-art digitalization project, adding an interactive dimension to the exhibition. Visitors will enjoy unprecedented access to Ferrari’s evolution, tracing the company’s milestones through rare photographs, videos, technical drawings, documents, and publications. The exhibition’s primary focus is Ferrari’s supercars—vehicles that have redefined performance, technological innovation, and design excellence.
At the heart of the exhibition are five interactive, multifunctional digital stations, each dedicated to a landmark Ferrari supercar. These stations offer an in-depth exploration of the development and engineering behind these legendary models, providing a comprehensive narrative through approximately 2,000 archival items, now digitally accessible for the first time.
Beyond the digitized archive, the exhibition engages visitors with thematic and interactive experiences, marking a first for Ferrari Museums. The display incorporates dynamic and playful elements, creating a journey through time from the 1980s to the present day. The goal is to make the experience increasingly immersive, ensuring that every visitor—whether a devoted Ferrari enthusiast or a casual admirer—can connect with the brand’s unparalleled history.
