Now a museum-château, Malmaison was the private residence of Napoleon Bonaparte and Joséphine from 1799 to 1814. Just half an hour from Paris, it was their country getaway. After the couple divorced, it remained Joséphine’s residence until her death, where she cultivated the gardens still enjoyed today. Be sure to see the black swans in the small pond at the back of the house. In addition to the natural surroundings, the well-preserved home boasts an important historical art collection and exquisite furniture.
