TERRIBLIS EST LOCUS ISTE, is an inscription revealed to the visitor when standing under the church porch, "This place is terrible". These words have been controversial, maybe because of the impressive overall effect that attract the attention as soon as you step inside the church. The stoup is borne upon the head of a wildly staring life size figure of the demon Asmodeus, wincing under the expression of faith, which is represented by four winged angels making the sign of the cross. A motto is engraved at their feet, Par ce signe tu le vaincras - 'In this sign shalt thou conquer'.
