Museo y Circuito Fernando Alonso

About the museum

The museum is in Cayés, in the municipality of Llanera, within a complex that also houses an international-licence karting circuit and other sports facilities. The complex was the project of the Asturian driver Fernando Alonso, who inaugurated the track in March 2011 in front of some 4,000 fans.

The museum building has two floors and around 1,200 m² of exhibition space. It displays some 400 pieces from the driver's personal collection: from the first kart he drove as a child to single-seaters from the promotional formulae and Formula 1, as well as competition cars from the World Endurance Championship, trophies, helmets and racing suits.

The karting circuit, homologated for international competition, has hosted European-level events and complements the complex's offer alongside indoor karting, a souvenir shop and event spaces. The museum visit can be accompanied by an audio guide narrated by Fernando Alonso himself.
