My husband and I visited this famous french writer's house and indeed the region in July of this year. The tour was very interesting and insightful into the life of an intriguing lady. The grounds were well kept and the weather was beautiful

Very surprised at the quality of this museum. Fascinating history of the area, Neolithic to Roman. The highlight was the final surprise of Roman ruins underneath the museum building.
