The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
La croix en granit se trouvait autrefois en bordure de route et a été déplacée en 1933 pour des raisons d'utilisation de terrain. Deux gradins carrés supportent le socle. Le socle, d'une hauteur totale de 50 cm, présente, à partir de 25 cm, des faces s'élevant en oblique, en forme de pyramide tronquée sur le sommet de laquelle se dresse la croix. La forme quadrilobée de cette croix monolithe lui confère l'allure d'une croix de Malte.

History
The granite cross was formerly located at the roadside and was moved in 1933 for reasons of land use. Two square steps support the base. The base, with a total height of 50 cm, presents, from 25 cm upwards, faces rising obliquely, in the form of a truncated pyramid on the summit of which stands the cross. The quadrilobed form of this monolithic cross gives it the appearance of a Maltese cross.
