Description

The sober exterior of this house, acquired in 1856 by Victor Hugo, gives no clue to its unexpected interior which reveals an otherwise unknown facet to the great man; his talents as a decorator. Woodwork, majolica, tapestries and fabrics cover walls and ceilings. On the third floor, note the look-out, a lovely conservatory with sea views where Hugo used to write. The garden was remodelled in 2002 using the writer's notes, and has regained its romantic character.
