The Jules Verne House is a museum located in Nantes, France, and is dedicated to the life and work of the famous French writer Jules Verne. Verne was born in Nantes in 1828 and lived there for most of his life. The house where he lived from 1856 to 1871 was opened as a museum in 1978.

The museum houses a collection of objects and documents related to Verne's life and work, including furniture, books, manuscripts, photographs, and personal items. Visitors can see the desk where Verne wrote some of his most famous works, including "Journey to the Center of the Earth," "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea," and "Around the World in Eighty Days."

The museum also has a number of interactive exhibits that allow visitors to explore the world of Jules Verne and his characters. For example, visitors can climb into a replica of the Nautilus, the submarine from "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea," or explore the interior of a giant squid.

In addition to the museum, the Jules Verne House also hosts a number of events throughout the year, including lectures, book signings, and film screenings. It is a popular destination for fans of Verne's work and anyone interested in the history of science fiction.
