T hree buildings house the Harley-Davidson Museum and Archives, restaurant and cafe, retail store and special event space. The roads within the site serve as the crossroads of the Harley-Davidson neighborhood similar to Main Street in Sturgis and Daytona.

Located on 20 acres of land near downtown Milwaukee, the Harley-Davidson Museum provides an inviting hang out along the Menomonee River, and a new gathering spot for riders. A beautiful oasis in an urban setting, the entire outdoor area of the Museum is accessible to the public for free, 24 hours a day.

ARCHITECTURE
The Museum architecture incorporates urban design elements including: Exposed glass and steel to reflect the industrial history of Harley-Davidson and Milwaukee. More than 1,200 tons of galvanized steel beams were used to complete the Museum buildings. The impressive tower bearing the Harley-Davidson Bar & Shield at the end of the Museum building stands 80-feet tall and is one of the first things visitors notice. The West wall of the Museum building is made completely of glass, exposing the steel beams and allowing all to see inside.

EXHIBITS
The Museum brings Harley-Davidson passion alive through stories of the extraordinary people, products, history and culture of Harley-Davidson. Featured exhibits include: The famous Serial Number One, the oldest known Harley-Davidson motorcycle in the world. A recreation of a 1920s board track, complete with factory race bikes banking on a corner.

A chronological procession of legendary Harley-Davidson motorcycles. Paperwork proving that Elvis Presley purchased a Harley-Davidson motorcycle just days before he became famous with the hit single, “Heartbreak Hotel.”

EXPERIENCE
For years to come, visitors from around the world will be able to experience the passion that many have for the Motor Company as they explore the collection of personalized Living the Legend rivets. The Living the Legend rivets contain stories, experiences and connections that many have to Harley-Davidson.

The thousands of rivets are displayed on steel walls and plazas in the park-like setting of the Museum grounds and will be a favorite destination of Harley-Davidson Museum visitors.

Beyond the Museum exhibits, the destination includes a cafe and restaurant, along with meeting and special event space – all designed with the famous look, sound and feel of Harley-Davidson.

MEMBERSHIP PROGRAM
Harley-Davidson is inviting people worldwide to become a part of the Harley-Davidson Museum family through its new Membership program. The Museum is offering several membership levels, and members will receive exclusive benefits and privileges reserved for those who want access to the back roads of the Harley-Davidson experience. Special access to a members-only Web site and exclusive events throughout the year are just a few of many benefits.
