Yeah, you may call it "jail"... It is still the property of the French governement and as such French soil!

SORRY VERONICA; BUT NAPOLEÓN WAS A TERRIBLE MASSIVE KILLER (LIKE MANY OTHERS "GREAT LEATHERS")AND VERY MAD MAN; EGOLATRY AND VANITY, ETC. WAS HIS SIGN ALL TIME... SEND TO DIE THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS OF HIS OWN ARMY AND INNOCENT PEOPLE. SORRY, BUT THAT WAS NAPOLEON... MAYBE IN ART AND HISTORY HE SAVES SOMETHING.. BUT DOESN´T (NEVER)JUSTIFIES IN ANY ORDER HIS WORST ACTS = "ASSASSINATES".

Good picture of Longwood House but it is definitely NOT in the position you have shown it. The building next to your photo mark is a farmhouse on the plain well clear of the Longwood district. Longwood House's correct position is: 15 Degrees 56 min. 59.4 Sec S; 5 degrees 40 min. 57.67 sec W.

It is surrounded by extensive gardens as seen on your photo and is in the centre of the houses. I spent 3 weeks living near the House in April/May 2009 and checked its position by GPS. It is clearly seen on the google view with roads skirting round it to the North and South.

Veronica napoleon was one of the most important persons in recent history, like u, i feel a very deep respect and love for him, he's one of the most studied leader of all time, forgive enrique antonio for his blasphemy and ignorance

The position of the photo is wrong. The house is 800m to the ESE (4 o' clock position) Panoramio has blocked the position, which is odd, since it is incorrect. I would understand locking a correct position, but locking a bad position is inexplicable.

Hey guys, lighten up. The photo marker is in the right place with regards the person taking it, at the end of the lawn looking up to Longwood House.
