The California Automobile Museum is located a stone's throw away from Old Sacramento and the Crocker Art Museum. Their display of vehicles take their visitors back in time from the first cars to be mass produced by Ford all the way through current day. They have hands on exhibits that are kid friendly and are inspiring growth of vehicle wonderment in California.

Explore the history of the automobile and its influence on our lives–past, present, and future. Enjoy the Museum’s exciting collection of over 170 classic cars, race cars, muscle cars, hot rods, and early models displayed throughout 72,000 square feet of museum space. Buy an auto-related souvenir in the gift shop, enjoy a soda in the '50s style Vic’s Ice Cream vignette, and take a few pictures next to your favorite cars!
