1. Cite de l'Automobile
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 2,723 reviews
With 400 vehicles on show, the Schlumpf Collection is certainly the most prestigious collection in the world. This is demonstrated by the two Bugatti Royales, including the famous Coupé Napoléon, the 150 Bugatti, Hispano-Suiza, Ferrari, Rolls-Royce, Maserati, Maybach, Mercedes models, etc. From the first car, a Panhard-Levassor from 1894, to the present day, the Cité de l'Automobile brings the saga of the automobile to life. A living history as visitors can start a vintage car with a crank.

With over 400 vehicles in sparkling condition , it is said to be the largest auto museum in the world , a real must see if you are anything of a car enthusiast , impossible to do it full justice in one visit . Only one criticism , it is heavily slanted to French makes , particularly Bugatti’s , and you have to search very hard to find he odd Bentley , Jag , or Aston Martin .

Beautifully displayed selection of all eras of locomotives. From the earliest steam to modern day 500kph electrics. Trains from French Emperors and Présidents and everything in between. Also the biggest and most detailed model train set - over 12 meters long. A sight to behold. Original film and video displays and antique carriages decorated and set up in their original style- when 1st Class was fitted with armchairs. Those were the days!

The hotel de Ville is a magnificent building in the town square. It was not obvious to us that it was a museum and that it was free! It was very interesting with about three or four levels. The small room on the Dreyfus affair was very interesting.

Built in 1868, it was the “people’s little park” and had a social vocation even then. In the ages, it has growed and evolved a lot to become what it is now. Nowadays, Mulhouse zoo bring together 1200 animals and more than 3000 plants in a marvellous garden labelled since 1995. Among the 170 animal species, 90 are endangered in the wild. Mulhouse zoo takes part in around 100 international conservation programs. Since 30 years, it acts in the wild to protect the last wild lemurs, gibbons, old world monkeys, capuchins, tortoises and turtles, and so on. Mulhouse zoo presents its animals as wildlife ambassadors. Beautiful and playful, the Mulhouse zoo is as instructive as fun. More than 400 000 visitors came in 2017 and the zoo is the most visited touristic site in the department and the third in Alsace… and certainly one of the more prestigious in France !

The zoo had more animals than I expected, including ones I have never seen before, which is surprising because I have seen MANY zoos before. For example, there was a huge black hairy camel that was quite a sight. Also, there was a huge hairy donkey that I never knew even existed. Another thing I liked about the zoo was the train. My 3-year-old really enjoyed the ride and it helped us see all the animals from afar and made it easier to choose which we wanted to go back to for a closer look without losing time or energy looking for them.

A visit to the Electropolis Museum located in Mulhouse, puts visitors at the heart of electricity's great adventure. With a fun approach and a spectacular design, the museum caters to all audiences and age groups. It's the perfect way to understand the mysteries of electricity and learn about the experiments, theories, and great inventions that make up the history of electricity.

This complex is showing most unusual face of electricity. From discovery of its effects to its future generating solutions, going through live experiences, historical experience models and a complete “from power plants to consumers” animated network model. A real entertaining way to discover the hidden face of the electricity from “electricity specialists” to kids. I am currently use it as a training support for electrical beginners.

This City (We thought it was a town) is a lovely choice for people wanting to see museums and a little bit of real French culture. There are plenty of lovely restaurants and a lovely bar called Taverne des Chevaliers Teutoniques which is really worth visiting.
