Compains Cross

Compains

Around the village of Compains and in its hamlets, numerous traditional crosses tell the story of a community deeply attached to its faith and its landscapes.

– Gazelle Cross
Near the ruisseau de la Gazelle, this quadrangular cross is topped by a trapezoidal die set on a pedestal of stacked stones. The base and die appear to predate the cross. There are no figures or inscriptions on this cross.

– Cross in a village garden
