In Vorchdorf, located directly on the motorway and at the gateway to the Salzkammergut, the motorcycle museum is a highlight for many excursions.

The collection of Franz Amering and two colleagues began in 1970.
As a result of decades of passion for collecting and lovingly restored over thousands of hours, BMW motorcycles from more than 100 years are mainly on display here.

The BMW collection is complete from the beginning to the year 2000.
Other interesting objects show, above all, the development of motorcycles in our latitudes.

EXPERIENCE MOTORCYCLE HISTORY
Chrome gleaming details, belt drives, leaf springs, black high-gloss paintwork, leather...
The smell of technology hovers over it.

A visit to the motorcycle museum is a trip into the past.
Each generation will find memories of their own youth.

The exhibition is accompanied by old billboards, a gas station from the 1950s and many unique accessories related to motorcycle history. Between the individual topics, monitors with films about BMW history, the Gahberg Victory and other internationally recognized events provide relaxation.

Even children often show a lot of enthusiasm for the story of the "hot ovens".
However, if some kids prefer a play area, this is also taken care of.

The exhibition is particularly eventful in the attic of a square courtyard. Topics such as police motorcycles, fire brigades or the military are presented very authentically and with great attention to detail. The old motorcycle workshop with workshop machines powered by hydropower is a special attraction.

A separate bunk with unrestored vehicles gives an idea of ​​the effort behind the loving restoration.

You should definitely plan two hours for the tour in order to be able to grasp the diversity.
