The elusive Coubertin Foundation, established in the year 1950 by the duo, Yvonne and Jean Bernard, sprawls over 80 hectares of land in the captivating French countryside. The traditional French palace, acted as the grand entrance, holding the title of a historical monument, leads the way into the estate. This vast abode houses a palace, a garden of bronzes, and an English park. The sacred grounds of the foundation offer professional training in several workshops, such as metalwork, carpentry, stone-cutting, and casting. The sculpture museum accommodates renowned artists, including Pablo Gargallo, Carlo Sarrabezolles, Jean Chauvin, and Étienne Hajdu, to name a few. The mysterious estate also boasts some of these artists' works in its exclusive sculpture collection.
