The Witches Tree

A twisted tree at the corner of Sixth and Park in Old Louisville is a popular destination for history buffs and fans of the paranormal. According to legend, today's tree sprang up magically on the spot where a different tree once stood. That tree was the favored meeting spot for a coven of local witches. When the city chopped down their tree, their curse destroyed Louisville with a tornado.
