Ferdinand Cheval Palace, France


Ferdinand Cheval

Postman.

Dreamer.

Genius.

Alone, in 1888, he constructed this abode from stones, cement, and wire.
Inspired by his obsession with stones, 
He dedicated 33 years of his life to the construction of  Palace Cheval, his Palace Idéal.







 
He even included two crypts for his wife and himself.
His legacy remains today.
Go see it in France.
