The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Croix datée de 1600 sur le piédestal, mais la base et le fût ne sont pas de la même époque que le sommet. Cette croix présente une sculpture très fruste portant, d'un côté, une crucifixion, de l'autre une scène avec deux femmes.

History
Cross dated 1600 on the pedestal, but the base and shaft are not from the same period as the top. This cross presents a very crude sculpture bearing, on one side, a crucifixion, on the other a scene with two women.
