King Dagobert promoted the church and the Benedictine monastery attached to it to national importance.
This monument, executed in the middle of the 13th century, is in the form of a funerary niche, its base treated as a tympanum. It depicts the legend of John the Hermit who dreamed that the soul of Dagobert was stolen away by demons and finally snatched from their clutches by the intercession of Saints Denis, Maurice and Martin.
