Volo Auto Museum & Antique Malls

Where can your group see 250 to 300 or the world's rarest, most beautiful Hollywood, muscle and vintage cars?

Where can you stroll through gorgeous gardens and shaded picnic areas next to five antique, gift and collectible shopping malls, a museum gift shop and a '50s-style food court?

Where can you do all this and thrill to heart-pounding sound effects, and genuine war machinery in life-like military dioramas?

It's all at the Volo Auto Museum in Volo, Illinois - building its collection since 1960.

Highlights include:

* The George Barris Star Car Collection, including the Batmobile, Ghostbusters Ecto-1 and "Back to the Future" DeLorean.

* Movie and TV cars like Eleanor from "Gone in 60 Seconds," the Lotus Esprit from "Pretty Woman" and the "Miami Vice" Ferrari.

* Absolutely amazing exhibits like the $1.2 million Seuss-mobile from the live-action "Cat in the Hat" movie and a brand new $2.8 million future car display. See what cars will look like 30 years from now!

Nearly everything at the Volo Auto Museum is for sale, so the collection is ever-changing. And groups love our Military Adventure, with genuine vehicles, weapons, uniforms, and memorabilia dating from the Civil War through the War on Terror.

Find Greatness Within

The Muhammad Ali Center is both a destination site and an international education and cultural center guided by the ideals of its founder Muhammad Ali.  The Ali Center's innovative exhibits, educational and public programming, and global initiatives carry on Muhammad's legacy and continue his life's work.  Much more than a place that tells the story of one man's journey, the Ali Center reaches beyond the traditional visitor experience to inspire exploration of the greatness within ourselves.  Two and a half levels of interactive exhibits and multimedia pieces present Ali's life and legacy and motivate visitors to explore their own values.  Enjoy learning about Ali's Louisville roots, unprecedented boxing career, his societal and religious convictions and global humanitarianism.
