This large museum on Riga's eastern outskirts displays one of the finest collections of historic vehicles in the Baltics. Restored classics, racing cars, motorcycles and Soviet-era models fill a modern hall arranged with theatrical staging. Among its treasures are limousines once used by Soviet leaders, presented with a sense of humour. Interactive exhibits explain the mechanics and history of the automobile. The airy building makes it a popular family outing, especially for those interested in twentieth-century engineering and design.
