The brothers owned a textile manufacturing and, thanks to the successful state of affairs in the entire textile industry, it could not afford to buy rare cars and restore them. After the Second World War, they were able to buy back a lot of cars "Bugatti", including the personal collection of the brand's founder Ettore Bugatti, as well as meeting other collectors. Of greatest interest to Giovanni Fritz Shlyumpf cars were issued during the period from 1878 to the middle of the XX century.

However, in the 70 years of crisis in the textile industry has shaken the welfare Shlyumpf brothers and themselves forced to flee to Switzerland. Their car hangar where he kept the cars and were working to restore them, broke workers. To save a unique collection of vandalism in the hangar opened a museum. There are many who want to buy part of the fabulously expensive collection Shlyumpf brothers, so the state took her under his wing, giving it the status of a historical monument.
