A blast from the past
Juan Manuel Fangio, one of the most famous racing drivers of fifties, has a museum in his memory in his home town of Balcarce. A multi-storey building with a spiral roadway climbing up the centre tells the story of Fangio’s life with many of his racing cars and memorabilia. The museum is beautifully laid out and full of interesting material- well worth a visit

One of the best car museums i have ever been to
Superb museum which documents the racing career of Fangio comprehensively. Priceless exhibits with innumerable trophies documents and photographs make this a most facinating place.
