  • An interesting museum in an old building in the military quarter of Saumur. A lot of attention for Napoleon and the many (other) wars that France was engaged in until now.
  • Great museum, with also some tanks, close by to be viewed.
  • Well worth a visit ,we cycled here from campsite we were staying at in flowers lle d'offard about 10 mins
  • Lots of interesting artefacts and displays. Plenty of it in English but not very interactive. So lots of reading involved which gets a bit draining after a couple of hours. Worth a visit if military history is your thing
  • Fabulous museum with lots of great displays from the 17th century to current. It has quite fabulous displays of Napoleonic, Franco Prussian war, along with WW1 and WW2.
