En source Parvis Poitiers:
The moving memorial to the 72 dead of the Great War is attached to the south wall of the nave. The list of names is accompanied by some decorations fixed on the support (military medal, war cross, a Legion of honor), which is rare. We read, above: "To the glorious memory of the children of Romagna who died for France", and below: "Lord give them eternal rest".
