National Automobile Museum, Automobile museum in Encamp, Andorra.
The National Automobile Museum in Encamp displays around 80 cars, approximately 60 motorcycles, and about 100 bicycles in its exhibition halls. The collection allows visitors to examine these vehicles in detail across the available space.
The collection begins with a steam engine from 1885 and traces how transportation technology evolved over the following decades. It records the transformation of vehicles from early mechanical designs through to 20th-century models.
The founder Andreu Claret Casadessús became known for clearing snow during Barcelona's harsh 1962 winter. His personal passion for vehicles shaped how this collection tells stories of individual ambition and mechanical interests.
The museum is straightforward to navigate and visitors can walk through at their own pace. Plan enough time to see the cars, motorcycles, and bicycles, especially if you want to notice the design changes across the decades.
The bicycle collection shows technical development from early models to modern designs and draws attention from researchers worldwide. This section is rarely displayed with such breadth in museums.
