This page presents a concise overview of the Alfa Romeo Historical Museum, highlighting the brand’s origins, early engineering milestones, and racing heritage. The layout combines photographs of the museum’s interior—showing early Alfa Romeo models displayed in a modern, multi‑level exhibition space—with short historical summaries. The text explains that Alfa Romeo began in 1910 as Anonima Lombarda Fabbrica Automobili (A.L.F.A.) in Portello, near Milan, with Giuseppe Merosi designing the first model, the 24 HP. It notes that Nicola Romeo took over in 1915, giving the company its enduring name. Additional sections describe the “pioneering stage,” emphasizing Merosi’s early designs, and “racing and winning,” which highlights Vittorio Jano’s influential engineering from 1924 to 1950. A small image of the Alfa Romeo 33 TT 12—World Champion of Makes in 1975—reinforces the brand’s long competition legacy. All visible text is already in English, so no translation is required.Collection
