The Aston Martin Museum is an automobile museum presenting the history of Aston Martin cars. It is to be found off Dorchester Road in the village of Drayton St Leonard in south-eastern Oxfordshire.

The museum is run by the Aston Martin Heritage Trust, a charitable trust.

The Trust was founded in 1998 and the Museum opened in 2002.[1] The museum is housed in a 15th-century barn, built by the monks of Dorchester Abbey. The collection ranges from the oldest surviving Aston Martin car, No. 3 to a Vanquish Volante pre-production model dating from 2013.
