You are looking at one of the writing studios within the Château de Monte-Cristo which was the country house of the famous French writer Alexandre Dumas.

It was built in 1846 by the architect Hippolyte Durand and Dumas named it after one of his most successful books, The Count of Monte Cristo.
Actually, it’s the Chateau D’If; Chateau Monte Cristo is the MAIN house.
I have been to Dumas’ estate, the Chateau de Monte Cristo, and have seen and taken many photos of his darling writing studio, Chateau d’If. What a delightful jewel box this tiny place is!! Getting there is an easy day trip from Paris, so if you ever have the opportunity, don’t miss it!
