Auburn Cord Duesenberg Automobile Museum

Housed in the original 1930 Auburn Automobile Company administration and showroom building, this museum showcases the Auburn, Cord and Duesenberg legacy across three levels. Its Art Deco setting is part of the experience, with restored company offices and period architecture framing the cars.

The collection features more than 120 classic, antique, and special-interest automobiles plus thematic galleries on racing, engineering, and Indiana-built vehicles. The nonprofit museum is accredited and recognized as a National Historic Landmark and is part of Auburn’s larger automotive complex.

Start with an orientation through the restored showroom and company offices, then move through galleries displaying restored production cars, race cars, and one-off classics.

Look out for:

• Several original Auburn, Cord, and Duesenberg models, including show cars and factory-restored examples.

• Period Art Deco architecture and restored administration offices integrated into exhibits.

• Thematic galleries on racing, engineering, and Indiana automobile history.

• Rotating special exhibits and detailed interpretive signage.

Best way to experience it:

Allow 1.5–2 hours to see the main galleries at a relaxed pace, use on-site parking, and pair the visit with nearby automotive sites in Auburn for a full day of car heritage.
