Abode of Chaos

The Abode of Chaos (French: Demeure du Chaos) is a contemporary art museum located in Saint-Romain-au-Mont-d'Or, a small town in the vicinity of Lyon, France, with over 2,500 works[1] from many different artists, including the owner Thierry Ehrmann.

[5] The artwork is based around the transformation of the 17th century post house into a replica (post-)war zone, which contrasts with the peaceful village a few kilometers up the Saône river from Lyon.

[6] The mayor of the town said of the house: "It's humanly intolerable, ugly, dramatic, with its images of destruction.

[7] In 2013, the Grenoble Court of Appeals imposed a fine for continued non-compliance of €750 per day.

[9] In 2016, Ehrmann claimed "absolute victory" on his blog because of the passage of the law on freedom of creation, architecture and patrimony.
