The Witches' Tree — Attraction in Louisville

Creepy but cool. I don't know really anything about this tree but it is real and it's easy to get too. I enjoyed finding it. It is decorated with a lot of symbols. According to local lore, in the late 19th century, this tree was the gathering place for a coven of witches. There they performed their ceremonies and generally didn’t create too much of a nuisance. Until, that is, a city planning committee decided to remove the tree ahead of the annual May Day celebration.

After visiting the tree on a mildly warm day, me and my wife got back into the car and when I started it the heater was running full blast. The air and heat were off when we stopped at the tree. The car is a 2023 and I have never had any problems with it. So you decide what could of made the heat turn...

We came in the area to experience Old Louisville and found the tree at the corner of the park. It was cool to get out and see it and see the offerings other visitors had left. It's twisty and tangly and beautiful.

I did not have much of an offering to leave, but I did place my hand on the tree and speak to the ancestors and speak some positivity and blessings into it in.

It is kind of awkward that it is actually located in someone's yard on a residential street so I felt a bit like I was imposing... but not too much obviously lol

Cool stop while we were...

I wish I could have taken more pictures but people were walking by staring at me like I was weird.

I personally think that people should leave bird seeds for red cardinals, blue jays and squirrels as opposed to leaving necklaces and shoes or photos there.

If this building was renovated I would love to have an apartment there with a balcony and a beautiful view of the park.

Interesting fact; people leave junk around the tree including pictures of deceased loved ones. Of cheap jewelry and objects. I would hate that if I lived there.

And you can’t take the dirt up like you’d take grave yard dirt this this tree. It won’t let you the dirt of...
