The Automobile Club of France, also known in French as "ACF" or "l'Auto", was initially located near the Paris Opera and benefited from a villa in the Bois de Boulogne.

The members of the Automobile Club of France enjoy several lounges, a swimming pool, a gym, a library containing more than 50,000 references, a movie theatre, bars, and dining rooms.

On 16 January 1906 the French Automobile Club licensed the département of Sarthe to organize an auto race.

Their historical action marked the beginning of the 24 Hours of Le Mans and the French Grand Prix.

Today, the club maintains its head office and facilities on the Place de la Concorde in Paris.
