    Cité de l'Automobile - Collection Schlumpf

    (49 reviews)

    According to multiple sources, this is the largest automobile collection in the world. I don't know…read moreabout that (the Ford in Dearborn, the Volo in Illinois, the Technik in Sinsheim and the National Auto Museum in Reno seem larger - see https://www.yelp.com/collection/0cY-NQxr4PY3Wntj3uA-xw). This is certainly the largest collection of pre-1900's and pre-1920's. Starting with a display of hood ornaments and then continuing with cars throughout the years, this is a massive exhibit. An 1894 Panhard-Levassor, 1898 Peugeot, 1930 Maserati Biplace Sport Type 2000, 1936 Mercedes-Benz Type 500K, 1930 Bugatti Roaster Type 43A, 1934 Citroen 7-A Berline, 1942 Arzens L'Oeuf Biplace, 1986 Trabant, 1913 Violet-Bogey Torpedo Type A. So many more. Ferrari, Aston-Martin, Alfa-Romeo, Renault. Coupes and sedans and racecars (open wheel, closed wheel, F1). It is a half day at least. Plan ahead with snacks and a full battery on your phone. The museum is a short walk from the tram station which in turn is a few stops from the Mulhouse railway station. It's easy to access if you are in the Alsace region. Don't miss out! [Review 21195 overall - 113 in France - 159 of 2024.]

    While in France, my partner wanted to see the car museum in Mulhouse and didn't disappoint as car…read moreenthusiast like himself. The train tickets were booked the day before. Being it was almost a 4 hour ride to the Alsace Lorraine region (northeast of France), we went 1st class which was smooth, quiet and prompt. Being in that class, free wifi was offered but didn't work the entire trip. The museum collection was once the pride and joy of two brothers, one of whom was totally obsessed with cars. They were known as the Schlumpf Brothers, Hans and Fritz. They founded a successful wool company in Mulhouse and began buying vintage cars in 1957. There are more than 450 cars in the collection. The vast majority of them date from the first days of car production to the 1970s. More recent additions include a series of grand prix racing cars. The most expensive, a Bugatti Royale, one of only six in the world, just doesn't have a price tag. From end March to beginning of November, you can drive on the track. You can actually pick from a selection of awesome cars. It does cost extra to do this (from 40 euros) . Cité de L'Automobile Musée was extraordinary, extravagant and extremely fascinating to everyone but especially those who are into cars.
