The Louis Carré House is a museum located in Bazoches-sur-Guyonne, in Yvelines. It is dedicated to the preservation and enhancement of a residential house of remarkable architecture, designed by Finnish designer and architect Alvar Aalto. The site experienced a "second life" from 2006 onwards, following the creation of the Alvar Aalto Association in France, which undertook the inventory, restoration and opening to the public of the building. The house welcomes visitors by mandatory reservation and has a shop offering publications and design objects. The site also includes gardens, notably a pond decorated with water lilies at the entrance.
