Le Jardin Retrouvé

A surrealist walk into Satie’s music and wit. The composer Erik Satie was born in this house in Honfleur in 1866. His life is told (over free audio phones - in French by Michel Lonsdale, English version also available) from room to room, with many anecdotes and music samples. You’ll even see his ghost playing his music on a white piano. Allow one hour to make the tour.

Eugene Boudin is one of the forerunners of the Impressionist movement. The museum houses several interesting examples of the painter's works, although most of his masterpieces are to be found scattered in galleries elsewhere. Other notable artists featured in the permanent collection include Jean-Baptiste Corot, Paul Huet,Charles-François Daubigny, Gustave Courbet, Johan-Barthold Jongkind and Claude Monet. The museum also hosts temporary exhibitions that shed light on the work of artists who have worked in Normandy. Audioguides available in French and English.

An indoor tropical garden with hundreds of butterflies; charming, ideal on a rainy day.
