🧙♀️ Description
Mundon is a region known for intense witch-hunting in the 16th and 17th centuries. Mundon's petrified oak trees are 900 years old. Local lore says that their twisted, human-like shapes represent witches turned to stone or trapped in the trees. Some are convinced the site is haunted. Let's find out for ourselves.
