Petersen Museum

The Petersen Automotive Museum, now one of the finest car museums in the country, has reopened its doors following a $90-million renovation.

The Los Angeles location, once a department store, is now home to a stunning collection of historical and modern automobiles, motorcycles, and memorabilia — all housed in a completely overhauled space.

Many of the featured cars are legends of unimaginable worth, while others display the technological advancements of more than a century of automotive development.
