Mus e des 24 heures du mans 2014


The Museum of the 24 Hours of Le Mans (French: Musée des 24 Heures du Mans) was founded in 1961 as the Automobile Museum de la Sarthe. In 1991 it was adopted by the organizers of the 24 hours road race and moved to a purpose built museum complex under the direction of Francis Piquera, the Executive Manager.

In 2009 it was extensively renovated, so that the museum's permanent exhibition of the 24 Hours now highlights over 100 exceptional cars, many collectibles, dozens of films and archive photographs. The museum tour is organized around six major sequences that lead the visitor to meet the heroes of the 24 Hour race and origins of a tradition of the Le Mans automotive industry, tracing the evolution of the car in the twentieth century.
