A dark and strange history. There was a tree, at the right side of the cathedral, so old that nobody has ever wanted to fell it. Later on, when they decided to cut it, strange incidents happened. At night, the watchman was visited by a strange black man who twisted his arm, saying that the tree was tabu and must not be cut. After few days, the watchman’s wounds were so important that they decided to suspend the logging of the tree. The next day, the watchman’s wounds disappeared. A few days after, a lightning bolt blasted the tree and a human skull has been found between its roots.
