M|hlhouse has to TWO fine museums, the Schlumph museum with countless
Bugatti's and other very rare French cars, but there is also a
spectacular Railway museum that must be visited.
The most interesting car museum I have ever come accross is the one in
the Imperial Palace at Compihgne, just North of Paris. Set up in ca.1925
with cars that were found at that time. Most if not all showed as found.
I do not think that much has been added since 1925. It has extremely
rare vehicles/cars of the earliest period of powered vehicles. The
museum building itself and the presentation is not much but, oh boy, the
collection is unsurpassed.
