Musée automobile de Ciré d’Aunis

Musée automobile de Ciré d’Aunis, Automobile museum in Ciré-d'Aunis, France.

The Musée automobile de l'Aunis occupies a 3,000 m² hall in Aigrefeuille-d'Aunis, 20 km north of Rochefort, where 110 cars built between 1912 and 1994 are displayed under 36 makes, 28 of them French. About ten motorcycles, more than 200 enamel signs and petrol pumps from the 1920s to the 1950s complete the collection, shown restored or in original condition.

The museum grew out of a private collection assembled by Gilles Gaudissard, who gathered 110 vehicles built between 1912 and 1994 and representing 36 makes, 28 of them French. It opened to the public on 9 July 2022 in 3,000 m² of thermally insulated exhibition space kept at 20–22 °C, and is affiliated with the Fédération des véhicules d'époque. About 50 of the cars still take part in outings and events, and restoration work is carried out by the museum itself.

The museum is run by Gilles Gaudissard, who built the collection privately before it opened on 9 July 2022. About 50 of the 110 cars still drive at outings and events, and restorations are carried out on site. The displays give French makes, 28 of the 36 represented, particular weight.

The museum is in Aigrefeuille-d'Aunis, about 20 km north of Rochefort in Charente-Maritime. Outside the summer season it opens for groups by appointment only, so book ahead. The 3,000 m² hall is kept at 20–22 °C, and the entrance is marked by a white sign with blue lettering reading "SÉE MOBILE de l'Aunis" beside a dark grey garage door.
