Harley history in one place

A museum dedicated to Harley-Davidson motorcycles is to open in the US city of Milwaulkee on July 12.

The Harley-Davidson Museum will showcase an unforgettable collection of motorcycles and historical items from the company's vast archives and allow visitors to experience the people, products, culture and history of Harley-Davidson.

Even more importantly, it will celebrate the history of the company, the passion of the riders, and the stories of the employees, dealers, and suppliers, the museum's director, Stacey Watson, said.

These varied and fascinating stories are woven into the fabric of Harley-Davidson, shaping the legend and setting the stage for a bright future, she said.

The company hopes it will draw visitors from around the world.

The museum will feature exhibit space as well as a restaurant, café, retail shop, meeting space, special events facilities and the company's archives. - Travelpress travel news
