Description

Poet Alphonse de Lamartine was given this property on his marriage in 1820. He restored and enlarged it, adding a neo-Gothic peristyle recalling the English origins of his artist wife Mary Ann, who inspired and contributed to the improvements here; she painted several portraits of their daughter Julia and is also responsible for the "poets' chimney" in the bedroom. Her husband's desk, bedroom and sitting room retain the mark of his character and of his many friends (Hugo, Nodier, Liszt...).
