The Marconi Automotive Museum is located in the heart of Orange County and was voted SoCal’s favorite museum! We are home to an eclectic mix of over 100 vehicles consisting of Ferraris, Lamborghinis, muscle cars, race cars, motorcycles and memorabilia. Our race cars were driven by some of the greatest drivers in history such as Mario Andretti, Michael Schumacher, Aryton Senna, Nigel Mansell and more. In 1994, Dick and John Marconi donated the building and their entire collection to form the Marconi Foundation for Kids. In the late 1950’s Dick Marconi moved to California from Gary, Indiana. All he had was his wife, an 18-month-old son, and $500 in his pocket. After Dick had achieved success both personally and professionally, he wanted to give back to the community that helped build him.
The Zimmerman Automobile Driving Museum’s mission is to collect, preserve, exhibit and ride in historic vehicles. We use our collection to present educational opportunities and displays that illustrate the aesthetic, engineering and cultural evolution of the automobile. Unlike most museums that keep visitors behind velvet ropes or glass walls, many of the cars on exhibit at the ADM are ready to be explored.
Try your luck at the beautiful Morongo Resort and Casino
A luxury resort and casino with limitless views and myriad dining and nightlife options, Morongo Casino Resort and Spa offers Las Vegas-style gaming alongside upscale accommodations on the Morongo Indian Reservation. Nestled into the foothills of the San Gorgonio and San Jacinto Mountains, the reservation spans more than 32,000 acres and overlooks the vistas of the Banning Pass. The Morongo tribe has had to overcome many adversities as the reservation was one of nine small reservations set aside by President Grant by executive order in 1876. In 1983, the path of Morongo’s future changed when tribal members started a modest bingo hall. From this building evolved one of the oldest and most successful Native American casinos in California. The present $250 million destination which opened in late 2004, the Morongo Casino, Resort & Spa, is one of the largest tribal gaming facilities in the nation.
