The Lapidales sculptures are carved into the rock of a former quarry by various artists and depict different figures and scenes. The works of art are part of the landscape and blend harmoniously into the natural surroundings. They are an example of the art and history of the region. At the centre of "La Pierre de Crazannes" are five large "mother stones" representing the five continents, around which 360 other stones are arranged in a galactic spiral shape according to the golden ratio. This huge sculpture installation has been ongoing for decades and includes new stone works by invited sculpt
