MUSEE de VEHICULES ANCIENS
About This Museum
Tucked away in the Jura countryside, this museum holds a secret: one of the last remaining Bugatti Royales ever built. It feels less like a sterile gallery and more like a sprawling, slightly dusty garage where automotive history feels alive and ready to roar. You'll wander past everything from humble, canvas-topped Citroëns that look straight out of a classic film to hulking, brass-accented veterans from the dawn of motoring. The sheer variety is staggering, with each vehicle telling its own story of design and daring.
Collection Highlights
The undisputed star is the majestic Bugatti Royale, but don't miss the whimsical Messerschmitt three-wheeled 'bubble car' or the impeccably preserved 1927 Panhard et Levassor with its elaborate wooden-spoke wheels.
Visitor Information
It's located just outside Perrigny on the D107 road—look for the old stone farm buildings; you can't miss the vintage petrol pump out front. The owners are often around and love to share stories about their favorite pieces.
Architecture & Building
Housed in a series of converted 19th-century agricultural barns, the building itself is a character with its weathered stone walls and massive timber beams supporting high ceilings.
