The museum was founded by Tonino Lamborghini to honor his father, Ferruccio, rather than the corporate car brand.
The collection includes the 'Carioca,' the very first tractor model built by Ferruccio in 1948 using surplus World War II military parts.
It houses a rare prototype of a helicopter designed by Ferruccio Lamborghini in the late 1960s.
The museum displays industrial machinery like air conditioning units and oil burners, highlighting Ferruccio's background as an industrialist before entering the automotive sector.
The facility is located on the site of one of the original family factory buildings in Funo di Argelato.
The Museo Ferruccio Lamborghini is a private museum dedicated to the founder of the Lamborghini brand, focusing on his personal history and mechanical innovations. Located in a former industrial plant in Casette di Funo, the space features the entire production range of Ferruccio Lamborghini’s personal collection. The exhibits include the first Lamborghini tractor, the Carioca, which launched the company’s agricultural roots. Visitors can view the prototype of the Countach and the LM002 off-roader. The collection displays early mechanical prototypes, including helicopters, burners, and cooling systems designed by Ferruccio. It serves as an alternative to the official Lamborghini factory museum, offering a more intimate look at the founder's biography rather than just the vehicle manufacturing process. The museum occupies a renovated industrial facility in the Emilia-Romagna region.
