About Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum

George Barber's museum sits inside Barber Motorsports Park, an 880-acre complex whose road course hosts IndyCar's Grand Prix of Alabama. The 230,000-square-foot building shows more than 1,000 motorcycles at a time from a collection of over 1,800 bikes by 220 manufacturers in 22 countries, plus a large group of Lotus race cars. The museum opened in 1995 and moved to this site in 2003. Sculptures, including giant steel spiders, dot the track infield.
