The Sculpted Rocks of Rothéneuf

In 1879 in a small town in the south-east of France called Châteauneuf-de-Galaure, a postman began the construction of a fantastic palace, which took 33 years to complete and which today bears his name, Palais Cheval.

Some 15 years later, at the other end of the country on the coast of Brittany, a priest known as Father Fouré began the creation of an equally fantastic set of seaside sculptures, earning him the nickname of the Breton Cheval.
