At 21 boulevard Karl Marx, you'll find a strikingly styled house, with its green shutters and chalet-like appearance, built in 1871, where Claude Monet and his family settled three years later. Although they lived here for only four years, the renowned painter and founder of the Impressionist movement produced many masterpieces here, inspired by the surrounding countryside. Bought by the town of Argenteuil, the house has been preserved and renovated, and since September 2022 has been offering free, immersive tours thanks to astonishing digital devices.
