The clearing in the forest is the site of a small sacred monument: a statue of the Virgin Mary, known as the "Vierge du Mont Joly." The stone statue, which is not painted, stands on a brick base. The inscription reads "O! Marie, we have established our guardian." The figure is a work by Jean Molette (1819-1889) from 1884.
