A Private Viewing of Citroëns in a Museum of Sorts

Tucked to one side of Citroën’s sprawling auto factory in Aulnay-sous-Bois, about 20 minutes outside of Paris, is a gray and mirrored-glass building surrounded by a fringe of green grass.

One double-chevron logo adorns the awning of the entrance, but otherwise the structure is nondescript and incredibly reserved, like a warehouse from the future.

This is the Citroën Conservatoire, the company’s private museum, which houses an extraordinary collection of cars and an example of nearly every car the company has ever produced, according to the New York Times.
