The Calvary of Messan

  • Calvaire de Messan

Presentation

The Messan Calvary is original in its appearance, with its obelisk shape.
It was erected in 1847, nine years after the one on the Place de la Concorde in Paris. In appearance, there is no reference to Egypt in Rouans. For those who want to be observant, there are no hieroglyphs in sight!

On this unusual calvary, you can see places for three statues, those of :
  • The Virgin Mary,
  • Saint Joseph
  • and Saint Martin.

But one of the religious figures has disappeared. One more mystery...
