Scene Description: Source caption: "La tradition locale rapporte qu’au moment de choisir l’emplacement de l’autel, lors de la construction de l’église, le maçon jeta son marteau qui tomba sur le dos d’une loutre accroupie près d’un vivier...Le souvenir en est fixé sur la clef de voûte la plus large du chœur, datant du XVe siècle et sur une pierre de la façade entre les baies du clocher."
