The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Cette niche est l'une des plus anciennes du département, la plupart remontant aux 17e et 18e siècles. Elle abrite la statue de saint Roch vêtu en pèlerin et montrant sa plaie à la jambe. L'analyse de l'appareil permet d'indiquer que ce motif a été encastré après coup. La niche appartient à la première époque de la Renaissance ornementale.

This niche is one of the oldest in the department, most dating back to the 17th and 18th centuries. It houses the statue of Saint Roch dressed as a pilgrim and showing his wound at the leg. The analysis of the ashlar allows us to indicate that this motif was inserted after the fact. The niche belongs to the first epoch of ornamental Renaissance.
