BROOKVILLE – The Greenberg Cadillac Museum, already the world’s largest collection of Cadillacs, is planning a further expansion of its multi-building campus in Brookville.
The museum has continued to add Cadillacs, engines and memorabilia to its collection and now plans to relocate its paint and body shop to make space for an additional exhibition building to better display these vintage cars.
The museum is the private collection of Dr. and Mrs. Steven and Deena Greenberg, the founders of Laurel Eye Clinic. The Greenberg’s moved from Detroit, Mich., (the motor city) to Brookville in 1970 behind the wheel of their first Cadillac.
They have now collected more than 80 Cadillacs from the very first models from 1903 to the present day. All the cars have been meticulously restored by Dr. Greenberg and his local team including original paint colors, interior upholstery and engines.
The vehicles have charged batteries, license plates and are fully drivable.
The museum partners with the Brookville Area Chamber of Commerce, which opens the collection one weekend a month and uses visitor donations (museum entrance is free with donation) for beautification efforts in the community.
The museum also combines promotional efforts with the Coolspring Power Museum, (just nine miles south on Route 36), which is open the same weekends
Plan a visit to the Cadillac Museum (world’s largest) and bring your family and friends. This summer and fall the Cadillac Museum is open the third weekend of the month on Saturday and Sunday afternoons from 1 p.m. – 4 p.m.
The scheduled openings for the rest of this year are as follows:
- Aug. 19 and 20, (Sat./Sun.), 1 p.m. – 4 p.m.
A visit to the museum is a walk-through automotive history and provides an in-depth look at the premier luxury brand.
Since the invention of the automobile, Cadillacs have led a transportation revolution, fundamentally changing our lives, our roadways and reshaping the ways in which we work, shop, travel and enjoy ourselves.
The collection reflects the evolution over 120 years of trends, innovations, tastes and aspirations. Over these years, Cadillacs have become ingrained in American culture highlighted in art and advertising, movies and pop music.
Today Cadillac still stands apart … an icon of American industrial strength and pride that exemplifies “Made in USA.”
