The Franschhoek Motor Museum

Franschhoek

Activity Description

The Franschhoek Motor Museum offers visitors a special opportunity to look back at more than 100 years of motoring history with its unique and exciting collection of vehicles, motorcycles, bicycles and memorabilia in the magnificent setting of L’Ormarins. Across the length and breadth of Southern Africa, only one place can adequately portray the evolution of the automobile, The Franschhoek Motor Museum.
The museum’s collection exceeds 220 vehicles – ranging from an 1898 Beeston motor tricycle to a 2003 Ferrari Enzo supercar – and more than 80 exhibits will be on view at any one time, displayed in four de-humidified halls with a total floor area of 2700 m², and presented in chronological order.

Customer Reviews

A beautiful venue with an outstanding selection of motor vehicles reflecting the history of motorised transport across time. The wine shop is an added bonus. We have been several times and will go again. Well worth a visit! - Craig


As an exhibitor, we visit Cape Town once a year for the Africa Oil Week conference. We take the following weekend for corporate meetings and a bit of team building. As team building, I brought a friend who was thoroughly pleased with our tour of your car museum. It was his first time and my second time. Our guide was knowledgable and had a great personality. He was really entertaining. I especially liked the new exhibit of Alfa Romeos. We finished our day at the restaurant for lunch. Totally enjoyable experience. Thanks. Keep up the great work ! - John


Beautiful display of exceptional cars. Lovely staff who was always ready to assist me in any questions. - Danielle


It was a very pleasant and informative experience. The guide made it very special. - Frans


We have visited The Franschhoek Motor Museum on a few occasions, and with family holidaying here from Johannesburg, it was on the 'to do list'. Situated on one of the most beautiful farms in South Africa, we spent the morning meandering through the extensive collection of cars and motorbikes housed across four airy barns. The staff were friendly and helpful, the barns and cars pristine. Not easy to choose personal favourites from the collection but here we go... the 1964 Studebaker Avanti, and of course the Ford Mustangs. Worth the trip! - Heather
