It is an infected from the chapel of the Château de Saint-Merd, which was destroyed today. This funerary monument belongs to an ancient lord. The castle was under the order of Malta and was established as commandery in 1446. On the tombstone, we can see two large letters t, which could indicate that it was a knight of the Temple.
