History
This pillory consists of a cylinder of grey marble. It is raised at the entrance of the bridge which crosses a stream, very close to the enclosure wall of the old abbey. Above an escutcheon in relief are still visible the attachments of the chains and the traces of their rubbing. The escutcheon presents a quarterly of a fleur-de-lis and a cow, surmounted by a chief charged with a bâton de justice and supported by a base bearing the date 1682. The royal fleurs-de-lis, associated with cows, emblem of Béarn, attributes which were seen on the old local coins. The whole is surmounted by a modern cross.
