About About the place

The Musée Frédéric Mistral is located in Maillane, France, and preserves the house where the celebrated poet Frédéric Mistral lived and worked.

Guests can experience the atmosphere that inspired his poetic creations, particularly his famous work, *Mireille*. Currently, only the ground floor is accessible to visitors due to ongoing restoration work on the first floor.
