Serge Gainsbourg's Paris home is being turned into a museum.

Charlotte expressed her hope that the museum will provide a unique glimpse into the environment

Verneuil is difficult to overlook. 

This large home in Paris' normally staid and well-heeled seventh arrondissement is covered in eye-catching poetry, tributes, and pictures, graffitied in every color imaginable. You'd assume a national icon lived here or something, and you'd be quite correct - this is where the feted (and occasionally controversial) French musician and songwriter Serge Gainsbourg spent the last 20 years of his life.

Since Gainsbourg's death on March 2, 1991, from a heart attack, 

The mansion has served as an unofficial memorial to his memory. The fact that the contents of the house have stayed precisely as he left them three decades ago adds to the fascination of this spot for hardcore followers - even his cigarette butts are still in the ashtray.

Although there is always at least one fan outside (often with a spraycan), 

The house has been fully closed to the public since Gainsbourg's death. However, to commemorate the 30th anniversary of his death, Serge's daughter, actress and singer Charlotte Gainsbourg, revealed Monday that the structure will finally open as a museum in October of this year.

Charlotte expressed her hope

That the museum will provide a unique glimpse into the environment in which Gainsbourg composed most of his later work, from 'History de Melody Nelson' through 'Aux Armes et Caetera'.

The spacious living area,

With its piano, art deco bar, and Gainsbourg's extensive sculpture collection, will be the major draw. The singer was claimed to have told guests, 'I don't know what it is: a sitting room, a music room, a brothel, a museum.'

His daughter has purchased the garage just across the street,

Which will be transformed into a ticket office. The ground floor residential areas will be kept, and the basement will be converted into an exhibition space. Charlotte expressed her wish that her father's former home would be included in the 'legacy' of Paris. Ask any of the tens of thousands of fans who come here every year, and they'll tell you it's already there.
