Belvedere croix bernard

The calvary next to the Belvédère de Saizerais is called the Barnard Cross, which was a mistake when the calvary was named.
A label on the calvary indicates the level: 264m above sea level.
The Nivellement Général de la France (NGF) is a vertical reference network made up of over 350,000 levelling benchmarks whose altitude is precisely determined. These markers are, for the most part, metal macaroons about ten centimetres in diameter, set into walls or engineering structures" (Institut National de l'Information Géographique et Forestière).
During the French Revolution, religious objects were removed, but Louis XVIII re-evangelized the country, and the calvary was installed at that time.
The Pilgrim's Way to Santiago de Compostela passes just behind the lookout, so pilgrims passing through Saaisizer can stop here and continue on to Liverdun.
