The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Le piédestal de cette croix repose sur un rocher adossé à la petite chapelle. Le fût porte la date de 1701, mais est postérieur à la croix proprement dite, du 16e siècle. D'un côté, le Christ est en croix sous un lambel, le pied droit cloué sur le pied gauche. De l'autre côté, la Vierge assise tient le corps de son fils sur ses genoux. Les extrémités des croisillons sont fleuronnées.

History
The pedestal of this cross rests on a rock leaning against the small chapel. The shaft bears the date of 1701, but is later than the cross itself, from the 16th century. On one side, Christ is crucified under a lambel, the right foot nailed over the left foot. On the other side, the Virgin seated holds the body of her son on her knees. The ends of the cross-arms are fleuroned.
