Cette porte est un beau specimen de menuiserie régionale du 17e siècle. Les panneaux, tous sculptés, sont encadrés de moulures fixées sur le fond, au moyen de gros clous à tête ronde. Un marteau en fer est fixé au-dessus du panneau central. Au centre du motif sculpté de l'imposte, on remarque un écusson armorié d'une tête de lion.

History
This door is a fine specimen of regional carpentry from the 17th century. The panels, all sculpted, are framed by mouldings fixed to the backing by means of large round-headed nails. An iron knocker is fixed above the central panel. At the centre of the sculpted motif of the fanlight, there is a heraldic escutcheon with a lion's head.
