Musée Stendhal is the museum dedicated entirely to the famous writer. It is the place for those who love literature. The museum is located in the former home of Stendhal’s grandfather, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in the atmosphere of the bourgeois apartment where Henri Beyle spent part of his childhood, and to get closer to the work of the future writer. Numerous paintings depict Stendhal’s family and professors in the Italian drawing room. The study displays works from the library of Dr Gagnon, Stendhal’s grandfather, while the natural history cabinet is decorated with minerals and stuffed animals.
