The small sacred monument that the biker encounters here is designed somewhat differently than many other wayside crosses. The most common material is wood or stone, but here, metal has been used. The longitudinal beam is unusually long, so that it rises above the fields, visible from afar. The two ends of the crossbeam and the upper end of the longitudinal beam are adorned with an additional decorative element. But regardless of material and design, all crosses have one thing in common: For the faithful observer, they are a sign of the death of Jesus Christ, but at the same time, they always point beyond that to the resurrection.

These buildings are the origins of a former tile factory founded in 1850 by Charles Joseph Bertrand, which produced tiles of various designs for the entire region. Dauphiné roofs in the region are still covered with tiles made here. The location in Doissin was likely justified by the proximity of the clay that makes up the region's soil, the basic material for tiles. https://tuileriebertrand.jimdofree.com/ https://tourisme-valsdudauphine.fr/jy-suis/visites-et-patrimoine/musees/869960_ancienne-tuilerie-bertrand/
