The Vaasa Car and Engine Museum has exhibitions on three floors. Welcome to visit the largest private car museum in Finland!
GROUND FLOOR
On the ground floor of the car museum we traditionally display a theme exhibition which varies every year. Last year it was Citroën cars to celebrate the anniversary of the car manufacturer. This year we have crossed the English Channel. The exhibition The rise and fall of the British car industry presents the fascinating lifecycle of the British car industry in great detail. On the ground floor you will also find the permanent exhibition consisting of a variety of vehicles from the early 20th century up to the mid-1940s. On display there is an old fire engine which you can take for an imaginary spin, one of the oldest taxis in Finland and other rarities!
