Oldtimer Museum Route 59

Oldtimer Museum Route 59 is a privately run museum in Umhausen, Tyrol, featuring a large eclectic collection of classic cars, movie cars, mopeds, model cars and themed displays. The collection reflects owner Markus Egger’s Route 59 concept and mixes automotive history with pop‑culture figures and restorations.

The museum operates seasonally and also runs auctions and sales of vehicles. It’s located in the Vorderes Ötztal commercial area close to the main road and is aimed at visitors interested in vintage vehicles and unusual automotive memorabilia.

A compact, privately curated museum that combines functioning classic cars with movie props, model collections and themed exhibits such as a historical shoe workshop and nativity displays.

Look out for:

• Movie cars (examples shown include vehicles tied to Elvis, Fast & Furious and Ghostbusters) and life‑size film figures.

• A broad mix of classic cars, youngtimers, mopeds and Vespas displayed alongside ~1,500 model cars.

• Themed rooms: nativity/crib exhibition and an original circa‑1900 shoe workshop.

• Auction and sales information on site if you’re interested in buying or bidding.

Best way to experience it:

• Admission is published on the site (adult and child rates); group rates and extra hours may be available.

• Located in a commercial zone beside the main road—parking available nearby but expect a private‑museum layout.

• The museum also hosts auctions and sales; enquire ahead if visiting to buy or attend an event.
