The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Croix de cimetière présentant quatre feuilles ajourées à lobes légèrement allongés. L'axe de ce motif est disposé en x. L'extrémité des bras de la croix, ainsi que l'intervalle entre eux, se profile par un demi cercle rentrant, donnant à l'ensemble l'aspect d'une sorte de roue dentée. Le raccordement entre la croix et le fût est orné d'un petit Christ de peu de saillie. Fût octogonal applati. La base est cubique et repose sur un massif circulaire. Les tombes de l'église remontant à 1545 peuvent faire supposer que ce calvaire appartient à cette époque.

History
Cemetery cross presenting four openwork leaves with slightly elongated lobes. The axis of this motif is arranged as an X. The end of the arms of the cross, as well as the interval between them, is profiled by an inward-curving semicircle, giving the whole the appearance of a sort of toothed wheel. The connection between the cross and the shaft is ornamented with a small Christ of little projection. Flattened octagonal shaft. The base is cubic and rests on a circular mass. The tombs of the church dating back to 1545 may suggest that this calvary belongs to that period.
