For longtime residents of Wisconsin, our illustrious automotive and motorsports history is not a surprise by any means. However, if you\u2019re visiting from far-off lands, you might be a little shocked to know all the history right at your fingertips. For that reason, we\u2019ve put together a short list of some of our favorite motor vehicle museums to be found near Milwaukee, WI, covering planes, trains, automobiles, and everything in between.<\/span><\/p>\n

Best Motor Vehicle Museums in Wisconsin<\/h2>\n
\n

Wisconsin Automotive Museum<\/a> — Hartford, WI<\/h3>\n

Located just 45 minutes northwest of Milwaukee, the Wisconsin Automotive Museum seems like a good place to start. Set inside an old cannery along Hwy 60, the non-profit museum was started in 1986 with about 45 cars, and now keeps a collection of roughly 110 vehicles. The Southeastern Wisconsin Short Track Hall of Fame on site, which commemorates the history of regional racing in the area.<\/p>\n

Harley-Davidson Museum<\/a> — Milwaukee, WI<\/h3>\n

Obviously, Harley-Davidson really needs no introduction. It\u2019s so instrumental to the history of Wisconsin in general, and Milwaukee in particular, that it would be a crime against all common sense if there wasn\u2019t a museum. Fortunately, this one is absolutely stunning, with exhibits spanning decades of progress and featuring more than 450 motorcycles and artifacts. It\u2019s truly not one to be missed.<\/p>\n
