Au 19ème siècle, un paysan tailleur de pierre a sculpté dans le granit tout ce qui comptait à ses yeux : des personnages, des animaux mais aussi ses convictions et ses rêves. Il a puisé largement dans son environnement proche. François Michaud, cet homme solitaire a ainsi transformé un village ordinaire en un lieu unique.
