Solana cross: by order of 11 October 1907
Origin and history
Balléville Cemetery, located in the Vosges department (88) in the Grand Est region, dates back to the 16th century. This funeral place is marked by the presence of a cross called Solana, classified as Historic Monument by order of 11 October 1907. This ranking underlines its heritage importance and its exceptional character in the local religious landscape.
The location of the cemetery, at the approximate address of 12 Church Street, is documented in the Merimée base under the code Insee 88031. Although geographical accuracy is considered poor (note 5/10), the available data confirm its membership in the municipality of Balléville, in the borough of Epinal. The cemetery, a communal property, remains an architectural and historical vestige of medieval and modern Lorraine.
No additional information is provided on the contemporary uses of the site (visits, events) or on any other heritage protections. Sources are limited to Monumentum data and administrative references, without details of funeral practices or site transformations over the centuries.
