Housed in a former flour mill in the Le Merlan district (13th arrondissement), the Musée de la Moto traces motorcycle engineering from 1898 to the present. The 19th-century industrial building is a good match for the machines inside — both functional and built to last.
The collection charts how engine design, frame geometry, and rider ergonomics evolved over more than a century, from early combustion experiments to modern sport and touring bikes. Address: Traverse St-Paul, Le Merlan (13e). Tel: 04 91 02 29 55. Accessible by bus lines 32 and 33.
