A genuinely odd double-museum: half devoted to Gustave Flaubert (born here in 1821), half to the history of medicine, the family's other business. The Flaubert rooms preserve furniture and personal effects from his childhood; the medical rooms hold an unsettling collection of obstetrical mannequins, prosthetics, amputation saws, and a 19th-century operating chair.
It's a small house, an hour will do it, and it's strange in the best French provincial-museum way. A short walk from the cathedral, on the grounds of the modern hospital.
