Description

It is a cemetery cross made up of four leaves cut with slightly elongated lobes. The pattern is arranged in the shape of a X. The ends of the arms of the cross as well as the space between them are formed by a semicircle returning, which gives it the appearance of a sort of toothed wheel. The connection between the cross and the barrel is decorated with a little salient Christ. The barrel is octagonal and flattened. Its base is cubic shape and rests on a circular base. Since the graves of the church date from 1545, one can think that this ordeal also belongs to this period.
