Charlotte Gainsbourg achieved the goal she set for herself: to turn her father's house into a museum.
Serge Gainsbourg lived at 5bis, rue de Verneuil in the 7th arrondissement of Paris from 1969, until his death on March 2, 1991. It is in March this year that La Maison Gainsbourg will finally open its doors to the public .
Fans of the Cabbage-Headed Man had to be delighted.
Charlotte Gainsbourg has managed to keep the place as it is - even cigarette butts - since the death of her father.
A feat, according to his mother Jane Birkin, who underlines, in the
JDD
, "the necessary heating (...) so that Serge's Repetto do not rot from humidity".
From Gainsbourg to Gainsbarre
The visits will be 30 minutes.
A way of supervising the reception of admirers of the lyricist and composer to best preserve the place and also in accordance with the health protocols put in place since the Covid-19 pandemic.
In addition to the house where Serge Gainsbourg lived for more than 20 years, the public will find just opposite, at number 14, a bookstore-boutique, as well as a café during the day.
Once night falls, the establishment will transform into a piano bar, the aptly named Gainsbarre.
