From the Devil's Bridges to dragon lairs, these seven European sites have inspired numerous legends. Steeped cliffs, giant bridges, or dark caves have always been fertile ground for legends. One such site is the Devil's Bridge in Aberystwyth, Wales, which consists of three bridges, the oldest of which dates back to the Middle Ages. According to legend, the devil offered to build the bridge in exchange for the soul of the first living being to cross it. An old woman outwitted him by throwing bread over the bridge before sending her dog to retrieve it. This legend is relatively recent and was popularized by English tourists in the 19th century, who struggled to understand how their predecessors had built such a structure. This bridge is also part of what are called "migratory" legends, appearing in several places. Many European bridges are associated with the devil and are also called "Devil's Bridge." This is the case of the aqueduct of Ferrères, or Pont del Diable (bis), a gigantic Roman aqueduct from the 1st century in Tarragona, Spain. Again, it would have been built by the devil after making a pact with his architect: he demanded the soul of the first person who drank from the river. The architect outwitted him by sending a donkey to drink. The Giants' Causeway in Northern Ireland, created by volcanic activity about 50 to 60 million years ago, is composed of 40,000 dark basalt columns, forming a natural pavement along the coast of Antrim. According to Irish legend, it is all the fault of the giant Finn McCool, or Fionn mac Cumhaill, who built a road across the sea to confront his Scottish rival, Benandonner. When he realized that the latter was much more imposing, Finn disguised himself as a baby. Faced with this enormous infant, Benandonner fled and destroyed the road behind him. The remnants of this construction would have become the Giants' Causeway and... Fingal's Cave, a few kilometers away on the island of Staffa. Mount Pilatus, rising to 2,132 meters above Lake Lucerne in Switzerland, has a topography considered very dangerous during the Middle Ages. Add some caves and gorges and you have the perfect habitat for dragons. The mythology of Mount Pilatus was developed over the centuries by storytellers, who told different legends. For example, the story of the Drachenstein stone, which would have been thrown by a flying dragon from Mount Rigi to Mount Pilatus in 1421. Another tells of a man who fell into a cave and met two peaceful dragons with whom he spent the winter. In Germany, the Lorelei Rock, which dominates one of the narrowest sections of the Rhine at 125 meters high, gave rise during the Romantic period to a legend told in Heinrich Heine's poem Die Lorelei (1824). Lorelei would be a beautiful woman on the rock whose singing distracted sailors to the point that their ships ran aground. The naked giant of Cerne Abbas, a 55-meter figure in England, is part of a British mystery. Subject to tides, the setting is perfect for supernatural stories. The archangel Michael would have appeared there in 495 AD, warning fishermen of a danger. The site then became a pilgrimage site. The giant Cormoran would also have lived on the mountain, terrifying villagers by stealing their livestock until the young Jack the Giant Killer finally defeated him. Different versions exist, while in Cornish tradition, Cormoran would have even contributed to the creation of the island.
