- A Calvary was erected in the late nineteenth century to contain the remains of the Marquis de Trazegnies last, and this, because we could not bury it inside the church (second half of the eighteenth century ). In this ordeal, are buried a few family members of Trazegnies: Marie-Caroline de Namur, Marquise de Trazegnies, (1785-1844). She had previously been buried outside the church, near the wall that separated her from her husband Joseph Lothario. This was the last to be buried inside the church. The remains of his wife were later interred in the Calvary.
- Previously, this church (as all churches of the kingdom) was a cemetery that surrounded him. This cemetery was abandoned around 1890. He had served more than 1,000 years. Nowadays, there are still some headstones that are embedded in the outer wall of the church.

- Between the columns, extends a half-emaciated corpse, a skeleton, the portrait of Death. It is surrounded by inscriptions in Gothic characters: they serve as comments. It contained these words: "Mors omnia solvit.
Nascentes Morimur,
Mors ultirna linea rerum.
Ortus cuncta suos repetunt matremque requirunt,
Minium and repeated ad quod nihil aute leaks. " - lying Details: The lady is crowned, her hair braided in strings are enclosed in a mesh of pageantry. The rich color is chosen by a curious loose belt ends in a chain. John III is bareheaded and clothed battleship emblazoned tabard, loose garment, reaching to the knees, which began over the armor. He wears the collar of the Golden Fleece.

- During the Middle Ages, at the feet of the recumbent lady, commonly found in dogs, a sign of loyalty. But this loyalty is rather that of the guide dog in the subterranean realms of death. The lion, often at the feet of men, represents the power, strength, but also the Resurrection, as a legend asserted that the cub did not open eyes three days after his birth.
