Overview

The Museu de la Moto – Col·lecció Vicenç Folgado displays more than 100 restored motorcycles alongside classic cars, automobilia, toys and a large model-train layout. The collection was assembled and restored by Vicenç Folgado and opened to the public in 1999.

Housed in L'Escala on the Costa Brava, the museum is locally managed and often runs seasonal or appointment-based opening hours—contact the museum to confirm times before visiting.

What to Expect

A compact, well-maintained private collection focused on restored motorcycles and period automobilia.

Look out for:

  • Early 20th-century and mid-century motorcycles restored by Vicenç Folgado.
  • A small selection of classic cars (c. 1923–1980) and automotive memorabilia.
  • A detailed model-train display and vintage toys that appeal to families.
  • Informal, museum-style labels with provenance notes on many exhibits.

Best way to experience it:

Visit during the summer when hours are more likely to be regular, allow 45–90 minutes to see the collection, and call or email ahead if you’re travelling outside high season.

Things to Note

  • Collection is a private museum with variable/seasonal hours; phone or email to confirm.
  • Small venue with limited on-site facilities; plan for minimal services.
  • Some exhibit information is in Catalan/Spanish; bring a translation app if needed.
  • Easy to combine with nearby Costa Brava beaches and local sites in L'Escala.
