Overview
Maranello is the beating heart of Ferrari — home to the factory, the Fiorano test track, and the Museo Ferrari where you can see Formula 1 cars and Enzo Ferrari's birth house. The town itself is small and industrial, but it's a pilgrimage site for 'tifosi' (Ferrari fans) and petrolheads.

Before you go
Accommodation
Limited budget options in Maranello itself; most travelers stay in Modena and visit as a day trip. Book ahead if your visit coincides with a Grand Prix.
Culture
This is Ferrari territory — expect red-and-yellow branding everywhere, and a devout local following for the Prancing Horse marque.
Money
Italy uses the euro (€). Credit cards accepted at hotels and museums; carry cash for smaller restaurants and local buses.
Transport
Maranello has no train station; use SETA Bus 185 from Modena (hourly, 30 min to Ferrari Museum). Sassuolo has regional train access from Modena.
