Holy Well or Sacred Spring in Aquitaine:Lot-et-Garonne (47)

Cette fontaine, associée à une pierre, marque le lieu frontalier de 3 évêchés, départements et régions. La tradition indique un ancien lieu de cultes mégalithique et de source sacrée, dans une forêt autrefois limitrophe des départements du Lot, du Lot-et-Garonne et de la Dordogne.
La pierre, pour moi, n'a rien d'un morceau de table néolithique.
Beaucoup de légendes liées au "Petit Peuple" sont attachées à ce lieu.
