Attention, difficult course

This stone cross rising from the brick base may appear intact at a first glance, but it's worth a second closer look: the cross apparently once had a body, which has since been removed. Where the longitudinal and transverse beams meet, the outlines of the corpus that was formerly attached can still be seen in the stone. Also clearly visible are the holes that marked the nails on the outstretched arms and feet, with which the figure of Christ crucified had been fixed to the stone.

The supporting column of this small sacred monument, whose capital bears the date 1855, rises imposingly high. On top of it is a cross (presumably made of iron), whose longitudinal and transverse beams are merely outlines.

This church is not - as is usually the case - dedicated to one of the many people we venerate as saints, or to Mary the Mother of God or her son. Instead, it bears a biblical event as its patronage title, namely the "TRANSFIGURATION de NOTRE SEIGNEUR" (called "Transfiguration of the Lord" in German-speaking countries). => "In the middle of everyday life, three disciples have an Easter experience with Jesus: They see Jesus in a mysterious light, and Moses and Elijah talk to him. In this way, the deepest identity of Jesus as the "beloved son" of God is revealed to the disciples." This is what is said in brief in a work aid from the Bible work for the Feast of Transfiguration, which is celebrated in all Christian denominations on August 6th. This event, which is attested to in the New Testament - see Mark (chapter 9) and Luke (chapter 9) as well as Matthew (chapter 17) - is located on Mount Tabor in Israel. A basilica was built there to commemorate (see https://www.komoot.de/highlight/266239), which can therefore be considered the original church for the patronage of this place of worship.

Beautiful view of Perpezac! We get there by a small path lost in nature

On a single, path between stones in an old mine. Sheltered by the trees it is pleasant to be in the shade in summer.

Mentioned in 1264 in the will of Aimeric de la Serre, Bishop of Limoges, it was given in 922 by King Charles the Simple to SOlignac Abbey.
