History
The cross consists of a massive base on which rests the shaft, decorated with knobs. It is crowned by an ornate crucifix adorned, on one side, with Christ, on the other, with a descent from the cross. The base of the cross rests itself on another base, on one side of which is attached a stone altar. The whole surmounts a stone bench making the rounds of three of the sides of the monument. The chapel is a rectangular building with a single nave, with chevet with cut angles topped with gables forming the gables of small roofs. The building bears the inscription 1668. The ensemble is half-Gothic, half-Renaissance.
