Andorra is a small European state, but it has few interesting vehicle museums. Apart from Abarth museum and private collection of classic cars the city of Canillo has a great museum of classic motorcycles. A list of exhibits covers full period of motorcycles development – from the beginning of the previous century to our days.


Steampunk-styled moped F.Diamant was made in France in 1900. The interesting feature of this steam-powered moped is its steam engine.
