Cross Impasse St Cyr was erected in 1688. This cross stands in a small square at the intersection of the RD 906 and a dead-end road, against a private property. It is rather inconspicuous, set back by low vegetation. Its stone base is engraved on four sides: "D. Françoise Carre and M. Claude," "Jean and François Berthelot," "their sons had this cross erected," and "1688." The capital is composed of a series of round wreaths, and the square cross features a heart on the house side and "INRI" on a plaque. A simple wreath is engraved on the village side.
