Folk-art garden in the Croix-Rousse, built by hand by Jules Senis, a bricklayer of Spanish origin who dedicated it to his mother, Rosa Mir, using cement, pebbles, shells and fragments of ceramic. It brings together passageways, small grottoes, turrets and sculptures in a small area. It belongs to naïve and outsider art, and is considered a little-known curiosity of the district.
