Autoworld

Autoworld is an absolutely brilliant place and a must-visit for anyone with even the slightest interest in automobiles, history, or exceptional architecture. From the moment you walk in, the experience feels carefully curated and genuinely impressive. The selection of cars alone is worth the visit—an amazing, diverse collection that spans generations of automotive design, engineering, and innovation. Whether you're fascinated by early motoring, classic European craftsmanship, or modern performance icons, there’s something here that captures the imagination. One of the standout features is the quarterly temporary display, which keeps the museum feeling fresh and alive. Each new theme brings a different angle to appreciate, often showcasing rare models or telling a story you won’t find elsewhere. It’s clear that a lot of passion and expertise goes into crafting these rotating exhibits, making repeat visits not just worthwhile but exciting. Beyond the cars themselves, the setting adds another layer of wonder. The building is incredible—an architectural gem with soaring spaces and historic character that elevates the entire experience. Its surroundings are equally beautiful, creating an atmosphere that feels both grand and inviting. Simply walking through the halls, you get a sense that this is far more than a museum; it’s a celebration of culture, innovation, and design. Overall, Autoworld offers a rich, visually stunning, and thoroughly enjoyable journey through automotive history. It’s the kind of place that leaves you inspired, whether you’re a lifelong car enthusiast or simply someone who appreciates remarkable craftsmanship. Highly recommended.

Definitely one of the best car museums that I have visited. The museum itself is located in a beautiful building next to the triumph arch. The exhibition inside is carefully organized to guide you through the history of automobiles. There are many classics and top-of-the-line sports cars for all to enjoy. The arrangements of the cars are also pretty interesting, and no space is wasted - there are some small hatchbacks on the walls as well. When I visited there happened to be a special Mercedes Benz exhibition with almost all the classic Benz cars on show, which is a treat to any Mercedes fans like me. Highly recommend this place for people visiting Brussels!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely impressive! I was honestly shocked by how many amazing cars and motorcycles are displayed here. The collection is huge and beautifully presented — from classic legends to rare models you don’t often see anywhere else. Everything is well organized and full of history. If you love cars or bikes, this place is a must-visit. I’d definitely love to come back again!

I didn't imagine that I would enjoy it that much! I am not a big fan of cars, and I don't know almost any thing about cars' history or brands, but the way of organizing this meusam, made me enjoy seeing the development of cars from very old cars with big complex engines until the modern cars with their light powerful engines. Maybe the most important is mentioning that my kids (4 years old) enjoyed it. We spent almost 2 hours but we could spend a bit more.

Fabulous museum showcasing the evolution of cars, especially Mercedes — from vintage models to modern ones. You can easily spend 1–2 hours if you’re an auto enthusiast. Well-located and very well presented.

What a wonderful surprise. I went here with my husband as I know he loves cars. I loved seeing the old cars and the history of it all. I also like to think of my grandparents in some of these old cars. I took plenty of pictures and videos to share with my father who wasn't with us. If you like history and cars this is a great place to visit.

Timeless ride at Autoworld 🚗🏛️🕰️⏳ An amazing display of car history—from vintage classics to modern marvels, every exhibit was a treat! I spent around 2 hours exploring, and truly enjoyed every moment. Recommended for auto enthusiasts and curious visitors who love design, innovation, and a journey through time 🌟🔧.

I’ve been a few time! Really like the museum and even more that they always change exposition, and can always visit new exhibitions) and I love this place in the evening! Amazing cozy music dj, drinks, super atmosphere! Always will come in the evening)

This isn't the best car museum I've been to; the explanation and history of the cars is a little lacking which was a bit disappointing, especially as they have some unique cars I would like some more insight into. They do have a large and reasonably varied selection. The collection focuses mostly on European cars with the majority being French or Belgian, a lot of American, then a smattering of others including Italian and British. There are a handful of Japanese vehicles as well as some pre-car displays as well. They also have a section covering Belgian racing (such as the Spa track) which I would really love to see more fleshed out - with more history and background. It took me about 30 minutes and was worth the fee but if you've been to any of the other major car museums then I would not feel obligated to visit this one. I arrived at opening so plan a little more time if coming at a busier hour. It is a short bus ride (and a not much longer walk) from the EU and is within a lovely park; so if you're already in the area I would recommend it.

I enjoyed this museum. There's a good variety of cars throughout the decades. Easy to walk through. They have rotating exhibits.

Great museum. Loved it so much. $13 euros. Worth the visit for sure.nice part of town. Beautiful.

I have been to a few auto museums - the Lane Auto Museum in Nashville Tennessee, the Henry Ford in Dearborn Michigan, the Hall of Flame in Tempe Arizona and the NASCAR Hall of Fame in Charlotte North Carolina - and the wide varieties and impeccable condition of the cars here at Autoworld in Brusells is tops. The museum is somewhat organized by decade and is a true tribute to the innovation and the engineering of the automobile. There's an audio guide that gives some detail and I'd recommend it, as in most cases, the captions with the cars are minimal down to the manufacturer, year, horsepower and engine displacement. Two hundred or more cars on display that date back to the 1900's and 1910's through the Great War and the Second World War up to a very modern 2014 electric Volkswagen Golf. It's a little out of the way from the old Bruxelles and the history there, but well worth the metro ride out to here.

Fantastic selection of classic cars from all different years, countries and type. Very well organized, the staff is friendly, a must visit.

Really what's not to like? There's about 500 cars, and they're all pretty sweet. I think it was around 18 or 20 EUR for 2 adults and 2 kids.

Although I'm not a fan of cars, this place is very interesting. Full of different cool cars from different periods. My partner likes this place a lot, thanks for him I did have better understand of some of the cars. I think if you are a car lover. Then this will be a prefect museum to visit. This museum has many different kind of cars. All the old, classic cars are at the ground floor, most of them are from UK and France. At the back have a information and history of cars hall, not so big, but great to read. There also a room exhibited the old transportation tools. For me, during my visit all the high lights were at the second floor, at the front exhibited the race cars, pretty cool. At both side, it got some classic and memorable cars, beside that they also have few Motorbikes there, that were ok for me. At the back exhibited some very cool and beautiful from the recent. Most of them looked pretty awesome! At the end, I did spent more time here than I expected. It was very interesting and great place to hang around. It was totally worth to pay a visit here. Brilliant!

I wasn't too keen on going as dont really find enjoyment at looking at cars but my partner really wanted to go so I went along too. I was surprised to find myself enjoying it they had loads of really old cars and bike starting from the 1900 to modern day. They had an old police car, fire engine, ambulance and Hurst which was good to see what they used to be like. They had a little examination at the side showing horse and carts and some were really lovely looked like it was for royalty. It was very reasonably price 9 euro entry or 7 euro if you was a student. I would really reccomend going if your in Brussles it's a good day out and enjoyable for everyone. They have a nice area outside too for sitting down or having a walk around the grounds.

This is an amazing museum! We have visited it twice over the past few years and each time the exhibits were excellent. The selections of vintage cars in each exhibit are very carefully picked and extremely enjoyable. This time around the exhibit included a a variety of veteran, vintage and post-vintage cars and the Belgians at the Le Mans racing cars, as well as a variety of models. As a woman lacking knowledge in cars I easily spent 2 hours exploring here... I can only begin to imagine how long somebody with deeper knowledge of cars can spend here. Please note there is a pretty cool military museum with planes right across the parking lot!

This place is cool! It was only something like €9 and it was worth every penny. The cars range from pristine to a little rough and I love seeing cars that have actually been used. When they are too glossy and perfect, it's just not the same. For a small museum, they had a broad spectrum of cars from Europe as well as the US, along with a few from Japan. What's nice is that if you only have a short amount of time, you can go through the museum very quickly and get a feel for what they have. Otherwise, you could spend a lot of time looking at the cars. A lot of the defunct European brands I'd never heard of so it would have been nice to have a bit more information, but I really can't complain too much. I liked this place a lot.

There are many classic cars which are very famous and luxe models. I like Motor cars so I enjoyed walked around huge its Exhibition hall. F1 circuid cars are also there. Some models I've seen in films.I felt time slip to times back. One car My father had a same model. Visitor can take pictures. Separated washrooms men & women. In Exhibition hall has second floor so I'm not sure how wheelchairs go to the second because I accessed by stairs.So,I suggest ask before visit. Entrance fee €9,I think a bit price because other Brussels museums Entrance fee are between €4 to €8. There have a restaurant it seems formal.I want a cafe restaurant at there and Coat & Bag Check. Parking: in front of museum there are Parking space. Neighbors:Beautiful Grand Park,Cafe restaurant and Shops around a {Brussels Merode station and Rue de Linthoutstraat}.

I had a fantastic day at Autoworld, but given that I am a bit of an automotive geek, that comes as no surprise. I will, however keep my emotions aside whilst I write this review. So, what is autoworld? It is a massive hangar full of cars, ranging from Belgium's own Minerva and Fabrique National to Italy's Bugatii type 44s, Ford model T, a BMW type 326 and a Ferrari Testarossa! Well, they have a good selection of vintage and classic cars. They also have a little section about Belgium's automotive history, the ENB, their circuits, the most famous of them all being Spa Francorchamps. As you walk along the top balcony, they have classic cars against the back drop of Eau Rouge corner as you look up when you've just exited the very tight La Source hairpin. Oh, and they also have one of probably only 50ish Italdesign Giugiaro Aztecs ever built. Oops, I didn't realise I had my geek on there. Anyway getting back to useful stuff, they also have a wide selection of motorcycles, which by the way i am not interested at all. Getting to Autoworld is pretty straightforward. Take the Metro line 1 going to Stockel or Metro Line 5 going to Hermann Debroux and get off at Merode. Once you come up to ground level, look for the Cinquantennaire Park (the big stone gateway that kind of looks like Brandenbourg Gate) and start walking towards it. Autoworld is housed in the left building. Buying tickets online costs 8 euros. You just print your ticket and show it to the guys at the counter. They scan your ticket and let you in. Spend as much time as you want and enjoy it, for it is beautiful! They have a cafe and shop on the ground floor and toilets are situated in the balcony section, which is to your left as you look into Autoworld from the entrance. The shop is essentially a scale models shop and there's nothing there you can't get at modelzone. For me, it was a thoroughly enjoyable experience, because I love cars, I love their history, I love the engineering, the science, everything! When I go back to Brussels again, I will definitely return to Autoworld.

An excellent conference dinner venue. Reception here with 400 of my closest friends. I am not sure who did the catering but it was excellent, as was the service. And of course the cars are sexy as can be.

This is a great museum (if you enjoy cars and motorbikes)...They currently have a Jaguar Exhibition upstairs which was pretty good. There are numerous rare cars here as well as various less known production cars. Entry is pretty reasonable at 9 euros (7 if you're a student or OAP). It is well set out in eras from the 1900's up to modern day and it flows very well. Would definitely recommend a visit here.

I wasn't sure if this would be my cup of tea but I must say it was fabulous, and one of my favourite parts of my trip to brussels! The collection is impressive as is the historical layout. I highly recommend auto world even if you are not that into cars

Lots of cars I would not normally see in the USA. Clean, laid out well. Great place.

I was at a few conferences held here. The car collection was more interesting than the conference most times! This museum is not well known amongst tourists, but definitely worth a visit!

This is a great place to go if you are interested in cars. However, they claim to be more than a museum, but I never understood exactly what made them more than a museum. For me it was just a museum. Also, it was now enough limousines for my taste (actually there was none).
