RIPL agenda
The DCPL has chosen Mulhouse as the meeting place because this Alsatian city is located in the heart of Panhard country and is home to a magnificent Automobile Museum, formerly the Schlumpf Collection.
We look forward to seeing you from May 22nd to 25th, 2026 in Mulhouse, a beautiful region, where you'll have the opportunity to meet many other enthusiasts who will be driving cars you don't often see.
After a welcome reception on Friday afternoon, the 22nd, participants will be assigned to their accommodations. Around 7 pm, an aperitif will bring everyone together, followed by dinner. Some entertainment will take place in the evening; your suggestions for evening entertainment are welcome! Contact us!
Saturday the 23rd will be a day of exploring Alsace, with each participant choosing from a wide range of options. The natural distribution of the groups will allow us to fill the Alsatian roads around Mulhouse with Panhards. The morning and lunch will be free, allowing everyone to choose their own itinerary. A gathering in the late afternoon at the Cattin winery will provide an opportunity to share everyone's discoveries over a guided tasting of local grape varieties. Dinner and the evening will follow the same format as the previous night.

To maximize the opportunity to discover the beautiful and typical tourist villages around Mulhouse for those who haven't chosen the museums offered, we're planning customized programs after Saturday breakfast. After a morning drive in a Panhard (or not!) to Voegtlinshoffen, where the cars will park at the Cattin viewpoint, Chausson coaches with Panhard engines will take you to destinations of your choice, following one of two suggested routes (registration is free but required for organizational purposes upon arrival on Friday the 22nd).
- Visit to the city of Colmar followed by the village of Eguisheim before the Cattin winery.
- or Visit to the villages of Eguisheim and Kaysersberg before the Cattin winery.
- or Visit to the village of Eguisheim in the mid-afternoon for those who have chosen the museums of Mulhouse in the morning before going to the Cattin viewpoint to park their cars, the departure of the coach will be from the parking lot.

On Sunday morning, the 24th, DCPL members will be invited to participate in the DCPL General Assembly, while the other participants explore Mulhouse, its streets, and its museums. After lunch together, we will depart for the renowned Automobile Museum, where we will spend the afternoon. The cars will be gathered at the Autodrome where a swap meet will be held. Access to the Museum will be provided, with the option to return to the cars and the swap meet. We will then enjoy an aperitif alongside the Bugatti Royale and other prestigious cars before dinner in the Monaco lounge.
On Monday the 25th, departure will be on the agenda, except for those who choose to extend their stay to further explore Alsace, a region renowned for its tourism.
Additional information
When booking your packages, we ask for some information to help us organize this event, and we thank you for your cooperation in making the RIPL a success.
One month before the RIPL, participants will receive arrival instructions, routes, arrival time, and logistical instructions regarding trailers, motorhomes/campervans, etc.
Upon arrival, you will receive all the necessary information for the weekend, as well as your mandatory individual badge and the museum tickets you purchased with your packages. As mentioned, museum visits on Saturday are at your leisure, as is lunch on Saturday. You are free to organize your visits as you wish. Some museums can be visited more quickly than others; you might be able to visit two, for example, the Cité du Train and Electropolis, which are close to each other. The Alsace Ecomuseum requires significantly more time. A visit to the National Automobile Museum (Schlumpf Collection) is included in the packages.
On Sunday morning, you can visit the museums listed on this website, but please note that tickets must be purchased directly at the ticket office (tickets sold here are only valid for visits on Saturday).
