Origin and history

The Cemetery Cross of the Tith-Anger is a monument located in the municipality of Tith-Anger in Normandy. Dated between the 15th and 17th centuries, it embodies the typical religious architecture of this period, marked by late Gothic influences and renaissance. Its designation as a historic monument in 1961 underscores its heritage importance to the region.

Cemetery crosses played a central role in medieval and modern community life. They served as a spiritual and social landmark, often associated with funeral rites and local gatherings. In Normandy, these monuments also reflected the parish organization and religious practices of the time, in a rural context marked by agriculture and local exchanges.

The cross is located precisely at the address 6 Sente du Pothuit, on the territory of the Tath-Anger (code INSEE 27638), in the department of the Eure. Owned by the commune, it is protected by a registration order dated 24 November 1961, covering cadastral parcels A 60 and A 64. No information is available on its current accessibility or tourist use.
