Before you stands a collection of several eras. The column is probably the oldest and consists of two parts in the Renaissance style. It is crowned by an iron cross on which one can distinguish the symbols of the Passion of Christ (pincers, hammer, nail, ladder, and the column of flagellation). The whole stands on a kind of altar erected in 1819 after the death of the Marquis de Mailly, thus paying homage to him. Antoine de Mailly was born in Vesoul in 1742, the son of Marguerite Henrion de Magnoncourt de Franchevelle.

This stone, with its fine grain and delicate pink color, is a peculiarity of Saint Gernain: it is sandstone, the rock that outcrops at the site of "Les Carriers," where it forms a hill overlooking the wide cone of fluvioglacial ejecta from the Ognon. Indeed, the former ice ages caused the extensive deposits of alluvial soil that covered virtually the entire territory of Saint Germain and the neighboring communes. A succession of layers of different materials, mixed with varying degrees of clay, explains the numerous springs, streams, and wetlands. Humans have exploited this abundance of water: here by drainage, there by retaining the water for ponds or for use as washing places.
