Museo dei campionissimi, History museum in Novi Ligure, Italy.

The Museo dei Campionissimi exhibits 40 bicycles displayed on different surface types, from dirt tracks to modern cycling materials, documenting their technical progression through time.

The museum opened in 2003 in a former ILVA industrial building, transforming a 3,000 square meter space into a dedicated center for cycling heritage.

Two local cycling champions, Fausto Coppi and Costante Girardengo, are commemorated through memorabilia, unpublished testimonies, and historical newspaper articles from Gazzetta dello Sport.

The museum operates on seasonal schedules, opening on Fridays from 15:00 to 19:00 and weekends from 10:00 to 13:00 and 15:00 to 19:00 throughout the year.

The central exhibition track features bicycles ranging from Leonardo da Vinci's 15th-century wooden design to modern titanium prototypes, showcasing technological evolution.
