Pavillon Flaubert
Pavillon Flaubert, Museum and historical monument in Croisset, France
Pavillon Flaubert is a preserved house in Croisset near Rouen that belonged to the famous French writer. The building contains several rooms displaying desks, personal belongings, and a golden Buddha statue.
The writer's father purchased the property in 1844 and the author spent more than 3 decades of his life there. The small house survived bombardment during World War II and is now preserved as a historical monument.
