Mémorial d'hommage à la 2CV

You are standing at the site of a profound industrial legacy. This memorial commemorates the Citroën factory that once occupied this very ground, serving as the birthplace of the legendary 2CV automobile. For over forty years, starting in 1947, thousands of these iconic cars rolled off the assembly lines here before the plant finally ceased production in 1988. The location serves as a tribute to the thousands of workers who built these vehicles, which became synonymous with French popular culture and accessible mobility for generations.
