LA VALLEE-AUX-LOUPS - CHATEAUBRIAND HOUSE
Go there and contact
François-René de Chateaubriand bought this magnificent mansion, strangely named la Vallée-aux-Loups, in 1807. He was very attached to his "dear valley", his park, his vegetation, which he took great care of: " I was going, with hooves, planting my trees in the mud, seeing and reviewing all the small corners, hiding me wherever there was a thicket. " In the house, one crosses famous ghosts, from the beautiful Madame Récamier to the painters David, Girodet-Trioson, the famous rest bed of the Jacob-Desmalter immortalized by David's painting, or that of the scandalous madame de Staël before her forced exile in Switzerland… See absolutely: the charming Velléda tower, a small pavilion nestled in the park, which served as a work and library office in Chateaubriand. He écopa the nickname Velléda in memory of one of the martyrs'heroines, an epic novel that the writer wrote to the Vallée-aux-Loups.
The toddlers will be enchanted by the "fine stories of Sunday afternoon": At 16 a. m., a speaker tells a story or tale, in the park, the library or the video room. A mystery of a th century tale, daydreams by a young Chateaubriand, programming changes regularly (free activity).
