Late party for Jules Verne
Last year was Jules Verne year, because 100 years ago the famous writer died. There were of course lots of festivities. Surprisingly, in the towered house in Amiens where the writer of 'Around the world in 80 days'and 'From the earth to the moon' lived for 18 years, there was no time for parties. People over there were just working very hard to restaurate the house and restyle the expositions to give it a real Verne-atmosphere.
Now, the work is nearly done. On march 25th, The Jules Verne House will reopen. When in the top of the tower, don't forget to enjoy the view at the , one of the last stone circus theatres in France
