About This Museum

People come to this museum not just to see old cars, but to feel like they've stepped right into a glamorous bygone era. You'll wander through a collection that's surprisingly personal, filled with everything from elegant pre-war classics that look ready for a Parisian boulevard to quirky microcars that make you smile. It’s the kind of place where you can almost hear the ghosts of past drivers and imagine the stories each vehicle holds. By the end, you're left with a real sense of charm and a newfound appreciation for automotive history, all without any stuffy, overly formal vibes.

Collection Highlights

Look for the stunningly elegant Delahayes and Bugattis, then get a kick out of the tiny Isetta bubble car – the contrast is fantastic.

Visitor Information

It's easy to find right on Avenue de la Résistance in Valençay, and it's definitely one of the top-rated things to do in the area.

Architecture & Building

Housed in a building that feels more like a large, welcoming local garage or workshop than a grand museum, which totally fits the hands-on charm of the place.
