     10,000 m2 of Buildings     
 
In order to present his treasures in the best possible way, Maurice Dufresne wanted to open large areas to the public. 40 halls filled with treasures cover an area of 10,000 m2. They contain 3,000 machines from the four corners of the earth and which represent six centuries of history. (An additional 2,000 m2 will soon be opening to accommodate new vehicles.)

You won't believe your eyes.

More than 40 halls are already open and the museum never ceases to enlarge. 
 
The entire museum covers 67,000 m2 on the site of the former mill of Marnay, on a peninsula of the Indre river.
