Press, Publishing & Event
Why H&C Events?
There was a significant void to be filled in France in the sector
of historical tourism at the dawn of the 70th anniversary of
WWII and the 100th anniversary of WWI.
The group "Histoire & Collections", at the height of it's success
in the military press, recognized in the world of reconstitution,
collection and restauration of both civil and military vehicles,
has decided to "occupy the territory"...
25 years ago in France, Histoire & Collections was a pioneer in
the field of living history by becoming the organizer of the
festival of living history in Mourmelon.
This story and this savoir-faire are at the origin of the creation
of the events department.
