Château de Montfleury, Avressieux - France +++++

Château de Montfleury is a charming place and a magnificent castle. We must say about the part of the museum with historical bicycles: QUALITY, NOT QUANTITY, IS IMPORTANT. Many fakes, remakes, copies, failed imitations .... certainly not the right place for experts.

private cars collection hshprince of monaco

At the end of the 1950s, the car enthusiast Prince Rainier III began collecting old cars. His collection gradually grew over the years as he acquired more and more models, and the garage at the Prince's Palace soon emerged as too small to contain this collection of around a hundred stunning streamlined and sporty cars, from majestic body work to gleaming hoods and regal radiator grills!

In 1993, Prince Rainier III therefore decided to open his precious collection to the public. Many of the cars in the museum are cars used directly by the royal family.
