Bernos fountain

The Bernos Fountain is of Gallic origin. The Gauls worshiped the water deities and the druids celebrated their cult in clearings where the sun penetrated near the ferruginous springs considered as divinities. The spiritual life of the Gauls occupied an important place in their social group. The druids, dressed in white, symbol of purity of light and the immortality of the soul, led gatherings in the heart of the forest which had become a temple. The Bernos Fountain is a site rich in legends and mysteries. Its circular shape, its ferruginous waters, the arch which delimits the entrance and which presented a door, its surroundings of oaks.
Its legends strongly suggest that Druidic and Celtic cults took place around this fountain which has never been seen to dry up.
