Old car enthusiasts are in for a treat this Heritage Days weekend, with nearly 200 beautiful automobiles on display in Suresnes! Every year, the Suresnes Tourist Office organizes a gathering of vintage cars on the Terrasse du Fécheray, with a view over Paris and an attractive program featuring free rides in these fast-moving machines and an exhibition on the city's industrial development.
And even fans of American cars will find something to satisfy them! A real feast for the eyes, with cars that are rarely seen in France. But Suresnes know-how is also on show, with classic cars built in the Hauts-de-Seine region in the early 20th century, such as Talbot, Darracq and Le Zèbre. Children won't be left out either, with a host of fun activities for them!
Collectors will be on hand all weekend to answer your questions, or to take you for a ride in their unusual cars, from 2pm to 6pm. It's an opportunity to discover the town, via the Cité-jardins and the Mémorial de la France Combattante. Also on the program for this free weekend is a Concours d'Elegance on Sunday afternoon, with the Public Prize and the Children's Favourite, as well as an exhibition tracing the development of the automotive sector and recounting the creation of automobile factories in Suresnes.
You don't have to go to the forest to enjoy it: accrobranche is now available on the Fécheray terrace! Children can climb rope walls and zip-line back down.
The Tchoupito electric train will serve the various attractions on the terrace and take you on a magical and joyful family outing!

Gathering of classic cars
Many factories and personalities have contributed to the development of car manufacturing in Suresnes, a town with a rich industrial past.
Throughout the weekend, collectors will welcome you to view their vehicles, and you'll have plenty of time to ask them questions about these beautiful old cars, some of which were built in Suresnes at the beginning of the 20th century, such as the Talbot, Darracq or Le Zèbre.
An exhibition will trace the development of Suresnes' automotive industry since the early 20th century. Many automobile factories developed in the Alto-Séquan area during this period.
