THE THOUSAND-YEAR-OLD YEWS OF LANDE-PATRY
Two-thousand-year-old yews dating back to the time of Charlemagne, according to one of the local legends.
The thousand-year-old yews, or yews in love, stand beside the church. Two in number, one male and one female, the female yew has a completely hollow trunk in which a barber set up shop in the 19th century. No fewer than three accounts date their origins: to the time of Charlemagne, William the Conqueror or a former local lord who took part in the Eighth Crusade. They form a whole with the church’s statues of saints.
