The Vendée
Automobile Museum was founded in 1939 by Gaston Giron and is a collection of
motor cars and other modes of transport.
The family’s passion for
engineering and cars has led to the preservation of over 200 vehicles (cars,
bicycles, motorcycles and horse drawn carriages) dating from 1885 to prototypes
for the future.
One hundred and sixty of them are displayed in a vast
3300m² hall which is decorated with a remarkable collection of posters and
advertisements from the past. The museum also features a reconstruction of the
first garage of Gaston Giron, the collections founder, dating from
1929.
