All experimental French military vehicles where development has been abandoned are kept here. The vast storage rooms are only accessible to special guests. There is an enormous library, archiving the records of the history of French armor. The museum was renamed after General Jean Baptiste Eugène Estienne, the creator of the French tank arm. The previous name Musée des Blindés directly translates to "Museum of Armoured Vehicles".
