Château d'Auvers, located less than 30 minutes north of Paris in the village of Auvers-sur-Oise, is a historic monument built around 1635 by Zanobi Lioni, a wealthy Italian financier. The château inspired Vincent van Gogh to paint 'The Château d'Auvers at Sunset' in 1890 during his final 70 days in the village. Listed as a historic monument since 1994, the estate spans eight hectares and now functions as an interpretation center dedicated to Impressionist art and heritage. The château offers immersive contemporary cultural experiences exploring the history of Impressionist painting and its influences on artists like Van Gogh and Cézanne. Visitors enjoy free access to the park and gardens, along with year-round art workshops and cultural events.
