One of the two plaques, carved into the wall, is still visible, while the other was destroyed during the French Revolution. Lettres tombées à Nocé" (Letters that fell in Nocé) is an installation that evokes this disappearance, and is located close to the old road that was partially washed away by Storm Alex. A phrase in metal letters (like those on the lost inscription) is affixed to the surviving wall, visible from the D6204 road at the northern entrance to the tunnel.
