Overview

Located at the entrance to the Circuit de la Sarthe, the M24 presents a large, modern display of endurance racing, Formula 1, rally and IndyCar history. Exhibits include historic cars, trophies, themed temporary exhibitions and multimedia displays.

Plan roughly 1.5–3 hours depending on whether you add the self‑guided circuit walk or a guided tour. The museum offers content in French and English, online ticketing, and a public reopening on 28 May 2026 after recent transformations.

What to Expect

A focused, hands‑on motorsport museum with both permanent and rotating exhibits and easy access to parts of the racing circuit.

Look out for:

  • Legendary 24 Heures du Mans cars, period trophies and immersive multimedia displays.
  • The combined visitor route options: museum only, circuit only, or a combined visit covering both.
  • Temporary themed exhibitions that rotate throughout the year.
  • Multilingual content and an official visit app in French and English.

Best way to experience it:

Buy tickets in advance on the museum site, allow at least 1.5 hours for the museum alone (longer for combined circuit visits), and check event-day access changes during race weekends.

Things to Note

  • Located at 9 place Luigi Chinetti, at the gates of the Circuit de la Sarthe.
  • Tickets and guided visits bookable online; combined museum+circuit routes available.
  • Reopens 28 May 2026 after transformation; check the site for current opening status.
  • Visitor flows may change during major race events (24 Heures, Classics).
