Jules Verne House

The Jules Verne House in Amiens, France, is a solemn tribute to the visionary author, standing as a museum since 1980. This 19th-century mansion, where Verne lived from 1882 to 1900, is adorned with memorabilia, personal objects, and first editions that paint a vivid picture of his life and inspirations. The interior, a maze of Verne’s imagination, showcases an extraordinary collection across two floors, offering insights into his creative process. The highlight for photo-travelers is the opulent spiral staircase and Verne’s study, meticulously preserved, providing a picturesque backdrop that seems to narrate his stories itself. The exterior, with its distinctively ornate façade, offers a compelling architectural subject, standing as a beacon for literature and adventure enthusiasts. Visit during the late afternoon for the best lighting, enhancing the house's features, and avoid peak times to capture unobstructed shots.
