Auvers, Picardy<br />
30km north of Paris, the Auberge<br />
Ravoux is the last house that Vincent<br />
Van Gogh lived in before he shot<br />
himself in the chest in the garden and<br />
passed away in the room that he<br />
rented there. Suffering from mental<br />
health issues, he finished several<br />
paintings during his 70 day stay. He<br />
and his brother Theo are buried at tin<br />
the town cemetery close to the<br />
Romanesque Church which Van Gogh<br />
immortalised in his paintings. Follow<br />
the “Vincent” plaques in the pavement<br />
to see the landscapes he captured on<br />
canvas. The train takes around an<br />
hour from Gare du <strong>No</strong>rd or Gare<br />
Saint-Lazare to Auvers (you may need<br />
to change at Pontoise).<br />
