All the facilities

The Chairman's building
The Chairman's building was built in 1979 and then extended in 1986 right into the centre of the courtyard that marks the boundary of the old Ferrari site. The building is home to various different departments, but it still remains at the heart of the company, housing the Chairman's office as well as that of the Vice-Chairman, the General Director and the Finance Director.
Product Development Centre
The Product Development Centre was planned by the designer Fuksas, who wanted to provide the engineers and technicians with inspiration as they 'invent' the Ferraris of the future.
This building symbolises the essence of the creative process, thanks to its glass walls, which create an air of transparency, where ideas and individuals can move freely to create the Ferraris of the future.
Restaurant
Designed by Marco Visconti, the new Company Restaurant marks a departure, in terms of architectural expression, from the geometrical precision of the surrounding buildings. The main structure shields the interior from direct sunlight, and the corrugated steel covering creates natural ventilation.
The complex is arranged over three levels. The covered piazza on the ground floor overlooks Viale Enzo Ferrari and gives workers a place to meet and socialise. A training centre and the kitchen, with a calming hanging garden, are on the first floor.
The top floor is home to the light and bright dining area, with vast arched windows, adding to the sense of space. The furniture is designed by Cappellini, and is laid out in islands to allow people to gather in groups. As much attention is put into the dining experience as into the environment, with a focus on quality ingredients, menu variety, and service.
Galleria Ferrari Museum
Opened in 1990, the Galleria Ferrari Museum takes visitors on a journey through the company's history, as well as giving them the chance to admire some of the rarest Prancing Horse cars still in existence.
It also has a Formula 1 section featuring a reconstruction of the pit lane, using original pits and pit walls, plus the single-seaters that won Ferrari five consecutive Constructors' and four consecutive World Championship Drivers’ titles.
One floor of the Galleria is devoted entirely to technological innovation, reinforcing the extent of the technology transfer from single-seaters to GT.
2004 saw the completion of the Galleria Ferrari's extension, which adds a new 800 square-metre, two-storey structure to the existing building. The new section houses themed exhibitions, a shop and a café.
