Auto Sport Museum
About This Museum
Tucked away in the charming French town of Châtillon-Coligny, the Auto Sport Museum feels like a secret you've just discovered. It began as a private passion project, a labor of love for racing history that eventually grew into the public gem it is today. You won't find sterile, roped-off displays here; instead, cars are arranged almost as if they've just rolled in from the track. The air carries that faint, nostalgic scent of oil and aged leather, making it easy to imagine the roar of these engines in their prime.
Collection Highlights
Look for the stunning blue Gordini race car, a true emblem of French motorsport ingenuity. Alongside it, you might find a rugged Citroën that once conquered the brutal Paris-Dakar rally, its dusty tires telling a story of endurance. The collection is wonderfully eclectic, mixing iconic Formula One machines with more humble but equally fascinating road cars.
Visitor Information
It's compact enough to enjoy in an hour or two, perfect for a spontaneous detour. Just be sure to check their opening times online before you go, as they can be seasonal.
Architecture & Building
Housed in a converted industrial workshop, the building's high ceilings and raw concrete floors provide an unpretentious, garage-like feel that perfectly suits the machinery inside.
