The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Les travées de cette cave sont réparties autour d'un pilier central qui s'épanouit comme un palmier pour couvrir tout l'espace. La présence des deux caves voisines a conduit à adopter un plan trapézoïdal. Les quatre travées sont voûtées d'ogives simplement chanfreinées. Des niches ont été creusées pour agrandir la surface disponible, ainsi que des sortes de crédences. Les clés de voûte sont ornées d'anneaux.

The bays of this cellar are distributed around a central pillar which spreads out like a palm tree to cover the entire space. The presence of the two neighbouring cellars led to the adoption of a trapezoidal plan. The four bays are vaulted with rib vaults of simple chamfered profile. Niches were hollowed out to enlarge the available surface, as well as sorts of credenzas. The vault keys are ornamented with rings.
