I visited museum with my colleagues. We had English speaking guide as part of private tour. She provided interesting facts from history of Peugeot family. They aren’t only cars exhibited there but other things which were made by Peugeot family. Most of the cars are in working condition and perfectly restored. You can buy souvenirs at shop there. There is enough parking outside.

La Citadelle de Besancon

Reviewed By Hatton20 - London, United Kingdom

This is one of several citadelles designed by the mighty Vauban, military architect extraordinaire to Louis XIV and considered his masterpiece and the most beautiful. It is illuminated at night but check times as the lights are turned off quite early. There are 3 museums in the Citadelle which can be reached by a bus at Chamars or small train from the centre of Besancon. You can easily spend a whole day there. Take a picnic if weather is lovely. The Resistance Museum and Regional Museum (Musée Comtois) are inside the walls. The walk around the ramparts is stunning and gives a wonderful view of this stunning city on the Doubs which is in a loop in the river.

Belfort Citadel & The Lion of Belfort

Reviewed By bfindysz - Jerusalem District, Israel

We were passing through Belfort en route to somewhere else so didn't take the time to hike up to see the lion in situ. But, even from below seeing the fortress on top oi the mountain overlooking the town with the monumental, red stone lion crouching at the foot of the ramparts was quite impressive. Driving into the old town area was also an experience. The road brings you through the massive old stone defense walls via bridges and ornate gates. The main square outside the city hall is a great place to find a cafe and make a pit stop for a cuppa.
