15th century stone cross located at the end of the village: classification by decree of 14 June 1909

Origin and history

The cross of Rebeuville is a historical monument located in the village of the same name, in the department of Vosges (Great East region). Dating from the 15th century, it is characteristic of medieval stone crosses erected on the outskirts of villages, often for religious or commemorative purposes. Its location at the end of the village suggests a territorial or spiritual marker role for the inhabitants of the period.

Ranked Historic Monument by decree of 14 June 1909, this cross bears witness to the heritage importance attached to medieval remains at the beginning of the 20th century. Today it belongs to the municipality of Rebeuville, although its access and current vocation (visit, use) are not specified in the available sources. Its state of conservation and its approximate location (200 Rue du Cougnot) reflect the challenges of preserving small rural monuments, often less documented than major urban buildings.
