The former fortress and picturesque medieval town of Moret-sur-Loing lies on the edge of the Fontainebleau Forest and the peacefully flowing Loing River. This postcard-perfect town is indeed extremely photogenic. The most beautiful views are from the old bridge or from the right bank of the Loing.

The origins of this imposing wayside cross are said to date back to the 17th century. Since then, it has been destroyed several times – including during the French Revolution – but has been rebuilt time and again. The crossing, the intersection of the cross's longitudinal and transverse beams, is designed as a closed circle, and the transverse beam bears the inscription "Croix de Calvaire." The name refers to Calvary, commemorating the crucifixion of Jesus Christ on Golgotha (this Aramaic word, like the Latin word "calvaire," means "place of skulls") near Jerusalem.
