The Maison de Victor Hugo is a writer's house museum located at the Place des Vosges in Le Marais, Paris, where the French writer Victor Hugo lived from 1832 to 1848. The site was originally built on in 1605, and the de Rohan family renamed it to the Hôtel de Rohan-Guéménée. In October 1832, the 30-year-old Victor Hugo moved to the house with his wife Adele, renting an apartment on the second floor. Hugo died at the same address in 1885, and the house was later converted into a museum after Hugo's friend and fellow author Paul Meurice gave a large donation to the city to buy the house.
