In the heart of a Mediterranean landscape, an open-air museum exhibits the sculptures of Maria de Faykod.
About fifty white marble sculptures are harmoniously arranged within a vast natural space.
The principle enables a free circulation in this "inhabited" space where art and the playing elements of nature are in perfect osmosis.
The De Faykod Museum is in perpetual expansion, its collection increases more and more thanks to the creativity of the artist.
Unique in Europe, this Museum offers to the visitors
" an Authentic Oasis of Beauty ."
