Belvedere croix bernard

The calvary next to the Belvédère de Saizerais

Known as the Barnard Cross, it was a mistake when the calvary was named,
Macaron on the calvary for surveyors and levelling, 264m altitude
"Le nivellement général de la France (NGF) is a vertical reference network made up of over 350,000 levelling benchmarks whose altitude is precisely determined. Most of the time, these markers are metal studs about ten centimetres in diameter, set into walls or engineering structures" (Institut nationale de l'information géographique et forestière).
During the French Revolution, religious objects were removed, and Louis XVIII re-evangelized the calvary.
The Chemin de Saint-Jacques passes just behind the belvedere. Pilgrims pass through the interior of the town, then follow this path all the way to Liverdun.
