Happy 100th anniversary, Citroen.
Hat tip, Hemmings.
Citroën will stage “Born in Paris” Event from June 14 – 20.
On the occasion of its 100th anniversary, Citroën has invited fans and all interested parties to a very special event in the middle of Paris. 100 legendary Citroën models – from the A 10 HP to the 19_19 Concept – will be presented under the open sky from June 14 – 16, 2019 at rue Linois in the 15th arrondissement of Paris. The place was deliberately chosen because it lies in the middle of the “Javel” district – where everything began in 1919 and where Citroën produced vehicles for more than 50 years.
To mark its 100th birthday, Citroën will present the event as a unique journey through time. Overnight in the 15th arrondissement, the Rue Linois will be transformed into the so-called “Citroën street”. At a length of 400 meters, historic Citroën models will be lined up with the brand’s next iconic Citroën, the 19_19 concept and impressively illustrate the brand’s 100-year history.
The road is very close to Citroën’s first plant on the Quai de Javel in Paris, where the first Citroën model was unveiled on June 4, 1919.
