Azienda agricola Hombre, Agricultural and automotive museum in Modena, Italy.
Description
Azienda agricola Hombre is a museum within a working organic farm that produces Parmigiano Reggiano cheese and houses a private collection of historic Maserati vehicles. The agricultural operation and the automotive display occupy the same property, creating an unusual combination.
History
The founder acquired a significant collection of Maserati vehicles in 1996 to prevent their sale abroad. This decision preserved an important part of Italian automotive heritage from leaving the country.
Culture
The name reflects the owner's vision of merging two distinct Italian traditions: farming and automotive craftsmanship. Visitors experience how these worlds coexist in the same working space today.
Practical
Visits require advance reservations through telephone or email, with guided tours provided in small groups at scheduled times. It is best to contact ahead to confirm availability and ensure a smooth visit.
Did you know?
A 1958 Maserati in the collection introduced commercial sponsorship models to European motor racing, marking a turning point in motorsport history. This vehicle represents an overlooked milestone in how racing became funded and organized.
