Nestled in the heart of the Bois de Villemort, the Hanged Man's Oak seems petrified by time: even dead, it remains spectacular. Ageless tree, it also crystallizes all the superstitions of the past.
Where does this worrying name come from? It is possible that it is linked to the custom of hanging the remains of wolves killed during the hunts there.
