Sculpture Park Engelbrecht, Sculpture garden at Château des Fougis, Thionne, France
Sculpture Park Engelbrecht is an outdoor gallery containing 29 steel sculptures spread across the grounds of Château des Fougis near Rennes. The artworks surround a restored castle building where additional indoor exhibitions are also displayed.
The château originates from the 14th century and was reconstructed in 1593 following a fire. The estate later transformed into an arts space to showcase the artist's collection of sculptures.
The park carries the artist's name and showcases his vision of combining steel sculptures with the castle grounds. Visitors experience how the artworks interact with the surrounding landscape throughout their walk.
The sculpture park welcomes visitors throughout the year without requiring advance notice, making it easy to visit on your own schedule. If you plan to see the indoor castle collections, you should arrange a reservation in advance.
The artwork titled Le Nain Tracassin was added to the collection after the artist's death, arriving at the grounds as a final addition. This piece serves as a poignant closure to the sculptor's vision for the site.
