Stone embedded in a niche on the south wall outside the church, evidence of settlement in Roman times
This stone is embedded in a niche on the south wall outside the church. Discovered in 1665, it is thought to belong to a pagan altar sealed into the church's high altar, and to date from the 1st or 2nd century: testimony to the settlement of the area in Roman times. The engraving reads: "A priest, as well as a magistrate, quaestor and head of the pagus, Verus, having fulfilled the mission entrusted to him, obtained the separation of the Gauls from the nine peoples. On his return from Rome, he dedicated this altar to the genius of the country.
