A late 15th-century Gothic window in fine-grained granite from the chapel of the Château de Monisme (built in the 15th century with a wide moat for defense, it had various owners including the Lords of Razés, and was repaired and fitted with a chapel in 1739). The window was built into the house opposite the Bessines Tourist Information Office in 1875. It is finely carved. Two twisted colonnettes support a lintel where three roses blossom beneath a pinnacle adorned with a double rib topped by a festooned cord and marked with two carved letters, on the left an 'A' and on the right what could be the remainder of an 'R'. Could these be the initials of an Antoine de Razés? Private house, not open to the public.
