" Cette passerelle repose sur deux piliers élevés en pierres du pays. Elle a été réalisée en 1895 par Jean Borie, artisan forgeron local, sur les conseils des ateliers Eiffel à Paris.

Elle est venue remplacer la passerelle en bois du gué des "Peyrats" (nom des grosses pierres qui en permettaient le passage). "Afin de faciliter les pieux pèlerinages vers le champ du repos"."

"This footbridge rests on two pillars raised in local stone. It was made in 1895 by Jean Borie, a local blacksmith, on the advice of the Eiffel workshops in Paris.

It came to replace the wooden footbridge of the ford of "Peyrats" (name of the large stones which allowed the passage). "To facilitate pious pilgrimages to the field of rest"."
