calvaire de Louisfert

It is not a simple Calvary, but a "megalithic Calvary" which aims to remove, according to its author, the "vestiges of the bloodthirsty cults of the past". It is therefore erected on a "holy hill" consisting of most of the menhirs and dolmens of the region. Blessed as early as 1872, this Calvary was gradually enriched with numerous statues, then a Way of the Cross in 1892.
