Although Jules Verne never lived in this house, he “often had to come and contemplate the river from this height, where it becomes the gateway to the open sea and the path of adventure” (Julien Gracq, La Forme d’une ville).
Opened in 1978, the Jules Verne Museum invites you, in the crucible of his inspiration, to discover the man, the writer and his imagination, a skilful blend of intuition and fantasy, through original objects and documents as well as more contemporary creations, testifying to the extraordinary influence of Jules Verne’s work over time.
