The Oak Chapel Of Allouville-Bellefosse

It is like something out of a fairy tale or perhaps a Tim Burton film. Yet the oak tree in the small French village of Allouville-Bellefosse is not a figment of the imagination or, indeed, an old film set.

A staircase spirals around its twisted trunk but neither is this an everyday tree house. Instead of a dwelling place atop or amongst its branches, the visitor will discover that the interior holds the secret of this ancient oak.
