Le Palais Idéal du Facteur Cheval

The 19th century postman’s pastime is one of the world’s most important art environments, in the little town of Hauterives, France. Here are photos from a 2018 visit. For more information visit Spacesarchives. And see a collection of vintage postcards here.

Near the Palais is the cemetery where Cheval built himself a mausoleum as remarkable as the Palais.
