maison du docteur gachet

The house of Docteur Gachet is as gloomy as can be, it stands against falling rocks, you can smell the humidity and the poor girls who are at the entrance look so bored. but it is still worth a visit for the price.

Dr Gachet's house is a nice hideaway almost outside the village with beautiful gardens and a small exposition inside the house. It's really charming.

Lovely old house was free to go in. Could well imagine van gogh visiting and painting in the garden. Is a little bit on the edge of the village but worth the walk!

Doctor Gachet and his daughter are perhaps most famous for Vincent's role in memorializing them as well as their kindness towards him, and their home served as a haven for an impressive array of French artists beyond Van Gogh himself. His merits as a healer were less profound than his impressive fine eye for many great works yet unrecognized for their creativity in the latter stages of the nineteenth century.One gets a feel for Vincent and his fellow artisans as well as an intimate view of the everyday life of a country doctor at the time. Both inside and outside, the Gachet family home is a little jewel well worth a visit. The experience balances nicely the role of educational small museum allowing an insightful reflection upon an intimate bit of cultural history.

The real reason to visit here is that this was the home of Vincent's doctor and he did paint some scenes from here. The house and grounds are not remarkable in any respect. They do offer insight into the lifestyle of people of Dr Gachet's station at that time and , once again one must consider the Vincent aspect

with its connection to Van Gogh this is an interesting small house to visit if you are in Auvers for the day. We went in whilst following the walk round town seeing where all the well known pictures were painted and it costs very little so worth the detour. Nice small garden too

You can walk where Van Gogh walked, where he painted and where he was treated for his demons homeopathically by this doctor with a lot of business sense and terrific foresight in that he accepted paintings in lieu of money for treatments not only of Van Gogh, but of other Impressionists as well. His son donated the collection to the French state and you can see them today in Paris museums. His garden is beautiful and the house shows how a country doctor lived 125 years ago.

Auvers sur Oise est géniale à visiter pour le paysage et le calme qu elle dégage Tout le parcours de Van Gogh est très intéressant

la façon de vivre de ce temps là est bien rendu , l'histoire du docteur Gachet est instructive ,seul problème la difficulté à trouver ( pas assez de panneaux indicatifs ) problème de stationnement ( ruelle étroite pas de parking

Cette maison demande à être un peu plus valorisée, surtout son extérieur. L'histoire du Dr Gachet en vaut la peine

Tres interessante visite, jardin extraordinaire, interieur de la maison interessante malgre le peu d'oeuvres presentees.

On s'attend à mieux dans le village de Van Gogh ! Les meubles ont été vendus, peu de lithographies en exposition. L'accueil manque un peu de courtoisie.

Chega-se facilmente a Auvers sur Oise, partindo da Gare du Nord. Há necessidade de fazer uma baldeação, se não pegar o trem direto, mas preferi fazer meu horário e não me prender a esse trem, que sai de Paris e volta de Auvers em horário fixo, no início da manhã e fim da tarde. A cidade é bem charmosa, quando descemos lá já visualizamos uma série de reproduções das obras de Van Gogh nas paredes da estação, iniciando a viagem pelos caminhos do Impressionismo. Como eu não sabia exatamente aonde ficava a casa, acabei caindo numa cilada e paguei 6 euros pra ver o "quarto" de Van Gogh, numa taberna a 5 minutos da estação. só depois me dei conta que era um "pega turista", pois a verdadeira casa fica bem afastada, precisei caminhar uns bons 40 minutos. Fui recebida por uma guia super simpática, que sem que eu pedisse explicações, foi me acompanhando no sentido da visita e passando algumas preciosas informações, sobre Van Gogh e o Impressionismo. O destaque pra mim são as cartas, algumas são cópias, outras são originais, demonstrando a curiosa comunicação entre Vincent, Theo, seu irmão, e outros pintores que faziam parte do círculo.

Visitare la casa del dottor Gachet, personalita' multiforme, é stata un'esperienza molto interessante grazie alla cortesia e alla disponibilita' della signora che era alla biglietteria: ci ha raccontato moltissime cose da vera esperta: grazie!!l'entrata é gratuita

On se sent attendu et accueilli. Le jardin en mode friche est ravissant. Dommage que l'accès à la vue soit momentanément condamné mais c'est pour la sécurité des clients
