Barbizon is famously located on the edge of Forest of Fontainebleau. It is the hometown of renowned 19th-century landscape painters like Charles-Francois Daubigny and Theodore Rousseau. Interestingly, their works, which took inspiration from the commune’s scenic beauty, are considered the precursor of Impressionism. If you are an art enthusiast, you will want to visit the houses of Theodore Rousseau and Jean-Francois Millet, which host temporary art exhibits. Of course, you will not want to miss Auberge Ganne, an inn where these 19th-century artists usually met. This inn is now home to Musée Départemental des peintres de Barbizon.
