The Musée des Blindés (Museum of Armoured Vehicles) or Musée Général Estienne is a tank museum located in the Loire Valley of France, in the town of Saumur. The museum has one of the world's largest collection of armoured fighting vehicles and contains well over 880 vehicles. Because of shortage of space, less than a quarter can be exhibited. Over 200 of the vehicles are fully functional, including the only surviving German Tiger II tank still in full working order. It often performs in the spectacular armor demonstration for the public, called the Carrousel, which takes place in the summer every year.

It began in 1977 under the leadership of Colonel Michel Aubry, who convinced both the French military hierarchy and the local political authorities. From the very beginning, Colonel Aubry had made it a key policy of the museum to restore to running condition as many historically or technically significant vehicles as was feasible. The museum is still a State institution funded by the Army, but it is managed by the Association des Amis du Musée des Blindés.

Saumur was the traditional training center for cavalry for over two centuries but now holds the current Armoured Cavalry Branch Training School which is entirely dedicated to training armor specialists. There is also a separate traditional horse cavalry museum in the town of Saumur.
