Charles Terrot and Wilhelm Stucklen had founded a machinery factory in Cannstatt, Germany in 1862, and Terrot added a branch factory in Dijon in 1887. In 1890 the Dijon factory added bicycles to its products, and in 1902 they made their first motorcycle. In 1929, the company produced its 100,000th motorcycle and in 1932, Terrot entered motorcycle racing. In 1958, Peugeot took over the company and in 1961, production ended at the former Terrot factory.
