Description

It is a large composition of 5 m high, with various symbols referring to the prosperity and folklore of the region. Two horns of plenty overflowing with fleshy fruits and blooming flowers, frame the communal coat of arms. The central relief is a Victory crowned with olive tree, offering the crown and the palm. The coronation is a trophy, taking up the armor and the crest helmet of the Roman soldiers. These representations are not without evoking the Roman origin of the village. Three shells and two Howitzers surround the majestic building.

Then, plates will be added in order to pay homage to the "Dead for the Fatherland" of the two world wars and that making the places of the combats where the valiant Cuersois perished.
