The path of the donkey's soul to the Rio Negro

Built in the aftermath of the Great War by the Limousin architects Jouhaud de Verdier and Moreau, the monument was partly financed by the sale of the former presbytery. Sober and classical, it is entirely cut in granite and measures 4.33 metres. The obelisk is adorned with a cast iron palmette and a laurel wreath, symbols of victory, heroism and sacrifice, and a sword evoking bravery and power. Forty-six names are engraved on a marble plaque, and four others after the war of 39-45.

Dating from the 17th century, this granite cross belonging to the public domain is erected on a masonry base bearing a long monolithic barrel. At the top, sculptures depict a Christ on a cross surrounded by the Virgin Mary and Saint John on the west side and a Virgin and Child under a canopy on the east side. Masks adorn the perimeter of the base of the cross. In front of the cross, an old tombstone, engraved with a cross embedded in a circle, serves as a repository for coffins.

The Notre Dame chapel was built at the instigation of Father Louis Bayle in 1949 in the village of Les Allois. Simple in plan, it is built in granite, with a single nave, a triangular walled bell tower topped by a cockerel weather vane and a broken arch portal. The chapel houses a statue of the pregnant Virgin, a painted wooden Christ and a sculpture of the Virgin of Piety. Dating from the 12th - 13th century, and listed as historic monuments, they come from the former parish chapel

Known to have existed since the 12th century, the Abbey of Les Allois housed an important community of Benedictine nuns. Following its impoverishment, the abbey was abandoned in 1750. The sisters left the area to settle in the Quartier de la Cité in Limoges, giving their name to the Rue des Allois. Today, only one building remains from the abbey and has been converted into a dwelling. Some elements of the façade bear witness to its history: a carved shield, aligned corbels and a carved capital.

Located at the top of the cemetery in one of the main aisles, the monumental cross stands several metres high. Built in granite in 1899, it is surmounted by a cast-iron Christ on a cross. Around the cross, tombstones are carved in granite and carry painted porcelain plaques. Characteristic of the cemeteries in the Limoges area, these plaques bear witness to the importance of the porcelain industry in the region, of funerary art and personal and historical narratives.
