On the hillside you’ll see huge statues that look like modern rows of standing stones. This project could be seen as a bid for immortality, a fascinating saga chiselled in stone – or a slightly crazy concept created by Philippe Abjean, depending on your point of view! In homage to Brittany’s founding saints and the population’s traditional devotion to them, Abjean decided to erect 1,000 monumental statues, each carved from a slab of Breton granite and three or four metres high. He’s building a Carnac for the 21st century!
