The Hermit-Priest of Routheneuf

We tell the story of Abbé Fouré, the hermit-priest of Rotheneuf, France. After a stroke forced him into retirement, Abbé Fouré moved to a hermitage on the Brittany coast. Over the next 14 years, he carved more than 300 sculptures into the rocks on the cliffs of Rotheneuf.
