Maison Henri Martin, Surrealist house in Saint-Cirq-Lapopie, France
This medieval stone building includes a square dovecote tower and two upper floors above the ground level in Saint-Cirq-Lapopie.
The house, dating from the 13th century, was purchased in 1951 by André Breton, who spent every summer there until his death in 1966.
Artists such as Max Ernst, Pablo Picasso, and Salvador Dalí gathered in this residence to develop the post-war surrealist movement.
The municipality plans renovation works to transform the house into a cultural center dedicated to surrealism with exhibition spaces.
This residence, known as the former Boatmen's Inn, houses a project to create the International Center for Surrealism and World Citizenship.
