This museum has both beautifully restored and maintained turn early 20th century automobiles as well as a separate collection of original condition earlier automobiles that were owned by the museums namesake. If you enjoy automobile history then youll want to make time for a trip to this museum.

As a car guy this was a great museum to visit. The collection of antiques and display vehicles was awesome. Lots of automotive history. Beautiful place with plenty of parking. Pricing is great and they even offered a free Friday during the summer. Nice way to spend a few hours with the family.

Located a few minutes from Boston is this museum of antique cars. I went on a free admission day so not sure what they charge to get in. They have two floors of antique cars dating all the way back to 1899. The top floor changes the lay out often I was told by one of the employees but downstairs does not. Its a nice place to visit, you can bring some sandwiches to have a picnic in the upper area as they have a park and big yard for that.

Hidden Jem small but worth the time

Loved the Ducati showGreat lawn days , fun to hang and see all the amazing car and motorcycles

This is a beautiful building that Im very glad was made into a museum so the public can see inside. My mother has taken me here many times as a child and Ive come back as an adult very frequently. There are some really cool old cars and its worth checking out the museum itself. I prefer to attend the numerous car shows that happen throughout the summer/fall and the museum is the perfect backdrop for any car foreign or domestic. I used to attend shows here almost every week because there are multiple hosts of the car shows, but now I only attend the official car shows of the museum because they are run very well, considering the challenge they have with space!

Did you know there were electric cars in the early 1900s? You can see two of them here in the permanent collection! And the upper galleries change regularly too. Go see Americas oldest car collection and learn about how far (and not so far) the auto industry has come. Great for the kids who like cars, but its not particularly catered to young children who might want to touch and get into the cars however.

During my visit from this place, I saw cars in their original condition (just what they looked like at the time when they were bought).Very interesting. You will see two electric cars and you will know Tesla (the company) was not the first to come up with the idea. The gentleman who works as the docent is very friendly and knowledgeable.There is only one reason I rated 4 stars instead of 5, and that is because I was expecting more cars. Number of cars here was not what I hoped for, that is it, no otger downside, and yes J enjoyed it and recommend it to everyone. u

A beautiful and impeccably curated automotive museum. with a small but powerful permanent collection, and a wonderful rotating exhibit with numerous relevant motives of automotive history. the museum shines all year long, but especially in the summer with its exciting lawn events that draw hundreds of participants and thousands of guests.A must for auto enthusiast, and a joy for newcomers.

Great place to visit if you love old cars!

Visited this unique site for the first time, it’s about an hour from home. Went in search of this specific car show of micro cars and explored the antique car museum and grounds. It’s affordable and a nice museum collection of some very unique cars. At this show there were friendly car owners, they gave rides! The grounds and gardens were obviously once very grand and it’s sad to learn of the history and demise of facilities. Still it’s obviously a well used and enjoyed place which met the intent of the owners - for the enjoyment of all.

I stopped by the museum today because I was in the area helping a friend and I have been meaning to visit for years. So many gorgeous automobiles to view. The admission fee is only $10 which is a bargain for the Boston area!The presentation of the exhibits is really well done. Top it off, you get to see the inside of a gorgeous old building that is in amazing condition! I spent a little time thinking about what it was like when there were horses in the stalls instead of these gorgeous antique cars.I very much enjoyed looking at the original Guinness ad prints with the editors notes and being able to see the erased marks. It helped me understand more of the story.I was so intrigued by the stories of the lives of Larx and Isabel Anderson that I bought their biography in the little gift shop and I am not a fan of biographies.I look forward to coming back in the summer to enjoy the car show events that they have on the lawn.

Youre into cars? thats the place to go! Youre into beautiful parks? Thats the place to go as well! The Larz Anderson Auto Museum is one the most beautiful auto museum that Ive ever gone. Locals: you can always use the discount pass available at your BPL branch.

This was a really fun discovery. While the collection is not huge, the story is wonderful, some exceptional automobiles are in house and the architecture is gorgeous.If you are a car afficionado, this is well worth the stop.

If you love cars you need to go see the museum. They also have great lawn events throughout the summer

I’ve been heading to Larz for years! The exhibit is always top shelf! The cars and coffee, lawn events are a must attend if you love cars!

Super family friendly place. Different car exhibitions during the summer and fall season. The museum has the kind of elements that a car lover would enjoy. Bonus points for the park right next to the building.

Really neat museum, even for non car enthusiasts. The collection is pretty small. You can go through it under an hour, but the exhibit rotates. The best part is the themed lawn events, but they can be hit or miss depending on how popular the brand is (Japanese Car day was much bigger than MG Day).

Smallish but very interesting collection, from stream powered to century old electric vehicles.

Hadnt been back at the museum for a while, but went back for the British car lawn event, fantastic turn out with some amazing cars on show, fun :)

Awesome selection of classic cars.

Love to see all the antique cars close! Great history!

Had a great time for the Ducati release of the new bike f

Not a bad trip. Not nearly as many cars as I thought there would be. Lots of history.

Incredible location for any corporate or private event.

Love the cars, new and old. The grounds are beautiful! The staff is very friendly and helpful. Bathrooms are an issue. One ladies room? Not the best idea. Went to a private function there many moons ago. It was a greqt place for that, but thwy had very strict policies.

LOVED IT. PLANNING TO MAKE REPEAT DRIVES BACK HERE AGAIN. ITS AN ESTATE AFTER ALL, A MANSION, AND IT HOUSES CLASSIC CARS!

No words could describe that place, everything in there was so amazing, glorious, felt like I was in a different world!! cant wait to go there again and again...

Great place to visit. The events are great and the park is fantastic to sit and relax when there is nothing going on!

Amazing and beautiful collection! Great facts about the Larz family and history.

Great history, outstanding architecture. Best $10 Ive spent in ages

This was my first time going without a lawn event. I wanted to bring a guest who was staying with us. The museum was quiet. It eas nice to spend more time without too many people around.

This is a great place to learn about automotive history and have great events. Stealing is very friendly and helpful.

Beautiful old cars from the Golden age.

Great day! The museum was wonderful

If you love the automobile, this place is for you.

Nicely done, lots to see.

Summertime every weekend is a car day

If you love looking at older cars and rich estate grounds visit on a warm sunny Sunday and you wont be disappointed great neighborhood also and bring some friends

Amazing venue for motorcycle events!

We were there for Volkswagen Transporter Fest! Always a great time, the grounds are beautiful, what better way to spend your day than hanging out with a few hundred VW Buses!

This place was amazing. We went with my 7 year old and we were a little worried he would be bored. We were dead wrong he was very excited to see the Anderson family collection and was thoroughly engaged in the exhibits asking questions and making assumptions. Thank u.

Super cool museum, awesome weekend car events

Great little museum to check out some really cool and old automobiles. Student discount makes is very affordable at only $5. Make sure to check out the gift shop at the end, which is filled with old car magazines and vintage posters available for purchase.

The museum was amazing ! Lots of cars in a small space. Thought it was a little pricey but I understand you need that to take care of all those amazing cars. Definitely worth the visit!

Swedish Car Day was lots of fun! The museum appears very active and my husband loved seeing all the mint condition antique cars.

Hmm … kay. I guess this is a great venue for special events (which they do have often). But I was there on a day without a special event. This left the regular assortment of cars for viewing. That took me less than an hour, and left me underwhelmed. Well, I guess the sheer size of some cars from the 1910s and 1920s was noteworthy.Granted, there are some interesting vintage posters on the walls, and there is a collection of old enameled badges with international motor-club logos. Is that what you go to an auto museum for, though? Oh, and the poster I found most interesting—a Packard ad—was located in … wait for it … the mens room! Meaning, many visitors wont even see it. To make up for that, I am including it here.

Cool personal car museum although a little far from downtown, but definitely worth going and they have a lot nice old magazines.

The lawn events make it most interesting for me. If you like early autos, you might like the museum more than I do, and I consider myself a car guy.

Great lawn event for all ages. The museum I would say 5 plus would be a good age range.

LOVED IT! Went to the German car show and had a great time! Parking on the street was challenging but completely worth it to see all the cars, and the museum inside was incredible.

Great park and property. Great view of downtown Boston from the hill. Especially great venue during car shows.

Beautiful grounds great place for a function

Fabulous collection of rare, early autos. Staff very informative.

The Larz Anderson Auto Museum is home to America’s Oldest Car Collection. For more than 85 years the Larz Anderson Auto Museum has been supporting the community through a variety of educational programs, exhibits, and lectures.

My favorite day of the year. Porschefest.

We were able to get in for free with a reciprocal membership. Had a lot of fun with my kids for about 45 minutes. The attached park is a lot of fun.

I attended the Japanese car and motorcycle day. It was inexpensive and fun. The staff were very accommodating to my granpa and I.

Absolutely fantastic museum! Always a great time at their lawn events.

One of the best places for car shows. Great enviornment, great events, and amazing cars

Ive been to Swedish Car Day three years now and every time it is enjoyable. The museum is beautiful inside, as well as the exterior.

Very cool! They host private parties, too

An absolute gem! Have been coming here since childhood, moved to West Coast, but when I came back made sure to check it back out. Great car meets, and fantastic lactation. Which and hope more people will start other small car museums with their collections

Exceptional displayed-vehicles and historical information. Lawn events are well represented, frequent and fun. A community museum at its roots.

Has a great car collection displayed in an interesting stone mansion. Interesting car shows on the lawns each weekend in the summer.

Beautiful place with park and fountains around... Amazing collection of vintage cars and modern cars... I loved the vintage setting... A place to visit...

The cars are beautiful and its fun for the kids.

Amazing place . Best collection of old cars from last 150 years

Managable size and rich contents with many cool cars.

Great cars and coffee event. There was alot nice people and classic cars

Awesome museum

Beautiful grounds for a car show on the lawn, but the staff who work in the museum are very rude. Went up to the desk and the woman working it was too busy checking her Facebook or whatever on her cell phone to acknowledge me until I said excuse me.

Great place to wander around and the lawn events are awesome.

Beautiful location in Brookline with an amazing selection of vintage automobiles. Ive attended several lawn events here and thoroughly enjoyed it.

We enjoyed our visit to the museum. Such wonderfully restored autos and the grounds is beautiful.

Just 2 floors of old cars - but all of them in a good shape; small souvenir shop; limited parking; From time to time this place is doing some special car events

Very cool early American cars museum. I was here for an event and enjoyed it. There are a wide range of cars beautifully restored.

Enjoyed triumph day very much would have liked to have seen more participants and a few more Tr 3 s otherwise it was triumph heaven

Fun car museum, love the events and car shows. For events like Cars and Coffee, a lot of interesting cars show up for how local it is. Personally, I think they dont change up the main exhibits that much, but I understand that, museums can be hard to operate.

Good time, but wish there were more older bikes at the event

We got a pass from our local library so we got to visit for free. We took our boys ages 11 and 7 on a weekend. It wasnt crowded at all maybe only six or seven other people that we saw all day. It was a great place to visit and seeing all of the cars from so many different eras was just incredible. The boys (and mom and dad) had so much fun looking at all the different vehicles. Absolutely recommend

Great Lawn events every Sunday thru summer and fall.

Sweedish car day! @Larz Anderson Auto Museum.

Great place to check out cars and history

Beautiful exhibition of classic cars in a majestic carriage house. The collection is not huge, but what they have is really impressive.

Great place to spend time with family and great events.

Great little museum! Lots of cool cars and old old autos. Definitely worth a visit, 10 bucks for adults, students 5 and free for kids under 6 years old. The park surrounding the museum is really beautiful, if you come on a nice day it is perfect for picnics.

Nice museum, nice auto/motorcycle shows and a nice park.

Awesome! They switch the cars every few months, and the collection never disappoints!

I grew up in antique car circles and helping my grandfather restore and maintain our own 2 antique cars and this was one of the most amazeing antique and historicle auto collections Ive ever seen

Great place for a car show. Always worth a visit.

Head up here on a lawn event day and get wristband admission for the best value. You can visit the inside of the museum and see unique cars parked outside for the event - you get two things to do for the price of one. You can bring your own car if it fits the lawn event guidelines - yeah, your aunts old Plymouth is an extinct brand, even that would work! I will be bringing my Foxbody for Ford Lincoln Mercury day this summer. Great place to visit for auto enthusiasts in Boston.

The historic value of this site is amazing.

Was there for work didnt really see anything special

It was like being a kid in a candy store! So many awesome cars. Lamborghinis Ferraris and my favorite, American muscle cars! Great museum.

Lovely auto museum. Would love better ventilation, though.

Great little museum. Went here for Swedish car day. Good turnout good grounds and nice exhibits in the actual museum.

Wow, this place will blow your mind. If you enjoy looking back in time this is it. Plus they also offer themselves to our Ducati owners club NEDOC to stage events there. Love this place.

I was blown away, the car with the toilet inside made me imagine just how far people had to travel back then,pretty neat idea

A annual favorite for any car nut. With cars and coffee and with a different highlighted marque every Sunday, this is a pretty amazing spot just outside of Boston. Spend the extra 20 minute ride and hit the North End for some fantastic food and pastries.
