Maison natale Charles de Gaulle

It was such an interesting visit to see charles de gaul maternal family house not only because of the fact that he lived there but also to see a house from around 100 years ago everything is very well preserved, and the rooms are simply just so pretty, they have this old-fashioned charm

It’s a very nice and refreshing concept that you can actually walk in the rooms without the barriers and experience the feeling of living between these objects. The remodellings were beautiful!

Free on the first Sunday of each month. The house is not very big but looks nice and warm.

Very inexpensive site if you're into Charles Degaulle's life not a bad place to visit an hour is all you need

Beautiful musuem. We definitely recommend getting the audio guide. It's very informative. There's little to no signage around the house so the audio guide really helps. It's a beautifully maintained house. A must see if visiting Lille

Lovely house Museum of Charles de Gaulle and an interesting Insight into his early childhood life when living in Lille in his grandparents house. However. Very little info in each room so you definitely need an audio guide. We were so disappointed that after having been thru the majority of the house , the audio guide stopped, all info was then only in French?? Why no other language? And all info about Sport in France in the 40s to 60s?? Most odd. Where is the relevance. No mention of CDG war record/army record. What a huge missed opportunity as this is how people know CDG and want to understand how he managed the armies of France ..most strange

Wonderfully preserved, this was well worth a visit. Audio guide was very informative or alternative paper guide. May have been lucky but would recommend perhaps booking tickets in advance. When arriving we managed to get in without issue and not many people about but nearing end of tour there were a few groups. Excellent tour however!

Great little museum to pop into, shows a typical middle class home of the late 1800s. Worth booking in advance as it's quite small (I emailed as was coming from abroad) Little info available on de Gaulle's career.

Make a reservation for 5pm and you will get in for free and have an hour to visit the home, plenty o' time to see everything. You even get an audio tour, in several available languages, included. Start in the courtyard, then make your way into the huge 'middle-class' two-story home filled with furnishings from the late 19th Century as well as personal items from the family. There was abundant street parking in the area and staff were wonderful. CombatCritic Gives Charles de Gaull's Birthplace 9 Bombs Out Of 10 ... More Bombs Are Better!
