Museo Officine Benelli
About This Museum
Tucked away in Pesaro, this place is a total surprise. It all started back in 1911 when the Benelli brothers, a family of six, decided to shift from repairing cars to building their own motorcycles, and the rest is history. You can almost smell the oil and hear the clatter of tools as you walk past the original workbenches and blueprints. It’s not just a static display; it feels like the workshop just closed for the day, with legendary bikes like the sleek 750 Sei resting between projects. The passion here is absolutely infectious.
Collection Highlights
The star of the show is undoubtedly the 750 Sei, a groundbreaking six-cylinder machine that stunned the world. You'll also see Tonino Benelli's actual race-winning bikes and all the intricate engines that paved the way.
