Nail tree

Description

The current church was built in 1905 as a replacement for one of those small religious edifices that were once at the heart of every village. In front of the church, a linden tree bears traces of a large number of nails… Local folklore attributes medicinal virtues to the tree. Apparently - so they say - all you need to do is touch the decaying tooth with a nail, then hammer the nail into the tree to pass on the ailment to the tree and be relieved of the pain…..
