The new expanded Piaggio museum opened to the public beginning 21 April, featuring the exhibit “FuturPiaggio – 6 Italian lessons on mobility and modern life”. The museum will also house five permanent collections to tell the story of a Piaggio’s rich history spanning a period of more than 130 years.
After 18 years of activity and a level of success confirmed by its 600,000 visitors, the Piaggio Museum has been completely revamped and it has grown from 3,000 to 5,000 square metres, with more than 250 pieces on display. The new museum has become the largest motorcycle museum in Italy and one of the biggest in Europe.
The Piaggio museum runs through the entire history of transportation: ships, trains, aeroplanes, cars, scooters and motorcycles which have been born out of the parent company and its brands. The Piaggio Group owns the brands, Piaggio, Vespa, Moto Guzzi, Aprilia, Gilera, Derbi and Ape.
