Frommer's Review

Ever since a long-ago friend let us drive custom-made 1920s cars, originally created for silent-screen vamps around Hollywood, we've been addicted to vintage cars. Outside Silkeborg at the village of Gjern, our fantasies live again with a collection of 150 vintage vehicles made as far back as 1900 and as recently as 1950. Many rare European and American vehicles and motorcycles can be viewed, not only the Rolls Royce and Maserati, but the famous Renault Taxis de la Marne or a V12 Cadillac or the 1947 Crosley. A local mechanic, Aagi Louring, not only collected these vehicles but restored them to working order, opening the museum in 1967.
