A serving cart was excavated from a mound in Peckatel, Germany, in the investigation of a legend which for 1,000 years had described the mound as once inhabited by dwarfs who were served drinks from a wheeled cart. The Chateau of Villidoux-sur-Indre, France was owned by Philippe de Chauvnet. He stole a kiss from Isabelle de Beaumier. The outraged Isabelle reported the larceny to the King of France who ordered the castle owned by the kissing bandit demolished as a warning to others. Ten years later, an older and wiser Isabelle returned the kiss to Philippe as a sign of forgiveness. The King then gave his permission to Philippe to rebuild the castle which is standing to this day. Believe It or Not!
