Saumur museum 2017
The AFV ASSOCIATION was formed in 1964 to support the thoughts and research of all those interested in Armored Fighting Vehicles and related topics, such as AFV drawings. The emphasis has always been on sharing information and communicating with other members of similar interests; e.g. German armor, Japanese AFVs, or whatever.

Hello,

I've been in Saumur yesterday. There are major changes in the museum. A lot of tanks have been displaced, for example in the German WW2 and Allies WW2 rooms.
The WW1 tanks are now in the old "France 1940 room". The France 1940 room is now in the "oddities and curiosities" room, which doens't exist anymore. The T-34/76 has been displaced. The Panther captured in Dompaire is now inside the museum. The 2 Renault FTs and the Saint Chamond have been repainted. The Saint Chamond is now in running condition and will attend Tankfest 2017.
