Espace Histo Bus Dauphinois
Through a collection of 40 vehicles: char-à-bancs, coaches, buses, articulated buses, midibuses, trolleybuses, diesel and electric engines and numerous accessories and posters, the museum presents our public transport from 1865 to 2020.
Also on display is a 23 m-long model of the La Mure railway.
A ride in coaches and buses dating from the 1930s to the 1990s is possible during our museum's open days: Nuit Européenne des Musées / Musées en Fête en Isère (3rd weekend in May) and the Journées Européennes du Patrimoine (3rd weekend in September).
