Birthplace of Charles de Gaulle

Written by

The first Sunday of the month many museums/historic sights have free entrance. I was able to grab one of the last reservation spots for the first Sunday in June for the birthplace of Charles de Gaulle (World War 2 general and former president of France), which was one of the things on my to do list. This was actually his maternal grandparent’s house, but this is where he was born and this was a place his family would all get together. He only ever actually spent 2 night in this house (and I’m guessing they were pretty birth adjacent!).

Street view
Back view of the house from what would have been the little courtyard-isn’t the sunroom amazing??
Dining room
The chandelier of Le Petit Salon (the little living room)
This would have been his grandmother’s room-to the right of the bed was a little chapel of sorts for praying and to the left was a washroom
This is the room where Charles de Gaulle would have been born and that would have been the cradle that his mother used for him (and his siblings)-yes it’s the original although it was somewhat recently restored.

It was an interesting visit and I’m glad I went, but I’m not sure it would have been worth the entry fee, so I’m glad I didn’t pay!

    Best platform I have used in the Philippines so far. The local payment options make it so much easier to manage my account. Highly recommended. bw29login

    The variety of games here is insane. I spent hours exploring different slots and they are all high quality. pkp998 is where the real action is.
