And then, it's the Bugatti region. This is also where his son Jean Marie Carlo Bugatti died with the victorious Bugatti 57C Tank from Le Mans in 1939. He was only 30 Years. The Bugatti region is fantastic to visit in summer, every village is in bloom, beautiful colors light up the day and uplift your spirits, it’s incredible.

Circa 1920, Ettore Bugatti bought in Molsheim this house. He converted as a hotel to recieved his friends. The name of this place was: Hostellerie du Pur sang. René Dreyfus wants to give a part of his ashes in this place. In 1994 the Bugatti Alsace complete his wish. Image Unavailable, Please Login

Ettore Bugatti was also a train manufacturer. During the Great Depression of 1930, his cars sold less and the roar of the Bugatti Royale didn't help. Ettore put 600 people with employment (half factory) He would meet Raoul Dautry, the director of the SNCF, who would initiate a government contract. In 1934, Bugatti produced the first locomotive from his factory. The first test was Paris-Strasbourg. 90 units of the Autorail would come out of the factory in 4 forms.

I decided to visit Ettore Bugatti and his whole family at the local cemetery. The death of his son just before World War II would lead to the end of the Bugatti company. Jean Bugatti was 30 years old when he tested the 57C that won Le Mans in 1939. During a test, people would take their positions at every intersection to alert the public and warn that Bugatti was making tests drive on this road. A cyclist who finished his day went by a dirt road, Jean Bugatti who was passing at 230km/h could not avoid it. The accident was brutal the cyclist will come out with both arms broken. Jean was found on the side of the vehicle, ejected from the vehicle, a huge opening on the side of his face. People rushed in, the doctors warned, Jean died on the way to the hospital in Duppigheim.
