Rally Museum

The Rally Museum offers an extensive look into the history of rally driving. Visitors can explore independently or take a guided tour to learn about the iconic Flying Finns and the intricate work of co-drivers. A central, long-term theme of the Rally Museum is Group B, with its impressive highs and challenging lows. The exhibition showcases rally cars from the B-group-era, not only the most iconic but also the lesser-known aspects of Group B, including entry-level cars designed for beginners and the Soviet Union’s contributions to the category.

Due to the scarcity of genuine Group B cars from Audi, Lancia, and Peugeot in Finnish collections, the exhibition presents a surprising variety of other Group B cars instead. When the group was discontinued, not all cars lost their classification; only the most powerful models were affected.

The Rally Museum’s exhibition space displays vintage rally cars on red carpets, miniature models in illuminated display cases on the walls, and information boards on drivers inducted into the Rally Hall of Fame. Driver suits hang from the ceiling, adding to the museum’s ambiance. The Rally Hall of Fame itself, dedicated to retired rally champions and other key figures in the sport, has found a fitting home in the Rally Museum.

In addition to intriguing rally cars and rich historical information, visitors can test their driving skills with two classic Sega Rally arcade machines, a legendary gaming icon from the 1990s.

Supported by a successful crowdfunding campaign the Rally Museum opened in 2016. Learn more about the museum’s background here!
