It is the original place where the fetish priests met. The two cheese trees, one representing the male principle and the other the female principle, are surrounded by white cloths that make the place sacred. It is here that ceremonies are held to celebrate the birth of several children from the same birth. This ritual takes place on the eighth day of birth. And the belief says that any pregnant woman passing near this place can give birth to twins!

Si vous le pouvez, visitez Togoville le mercredi matin: c'est le jour du marché que vous pourrez donc visiter en même temps. Si vous êtes sur la côte, vous pourrez vous y rendre en pirogue depuis Agbodrafo, il y a des allers-retours incessants le jour du marché (environ 20 minutes de traversée).
L'arbre à palabre est entre la place du marché et la cathédrale Notre Dame du Togo qui mérite autant la visite.
Des arbres à palabre sur une place de village comme on en voit d'autres. Sauf qu'ici règne une ambiance spéciale, les pagnes plus ou moins vieux attachés autour d'un des deux fromager sont placés là à chaque naissance de jumeaux.
Visit Togoville to go with a guide because otherwise the site, including the whole city, desperately lacks explanations and you should not expect the buildings to tell you anything!
