Entrance to the Pierre et Lumière Sculpture Museum

Yann Bouchard, a local from the region, proposed presenting significant monuments of the Loire Valley as small sculptures in limestone. Sculptor Philippe Cormand created these works, which are displayed in the museum. Information panels provide details about the collaboration between Bouchard and Cormand in establishing this underground museum in Saumur. Among the replicas featured are Tours Cathedral, the Royal Abbey of Our Lady of Fontevraud, and the Castle and Tower of Trèves. Visitors can see how many of these tiny replicas they recognize as they walk around the museum.
