Bel Air Graveyard & "Giant of Bel Air"
Many citizen of the earliest settlement lie on this cemetery. Among them are even few former celebrities. If you look hard enough you might find the name Jean Francois Hodoul on one of the strongly weathered gravestones who was a korsar bringing down British trading ships for the French government.
Or you may find the grave of Louis Poiret who claimed to be the son of the French King Louis XVI who hoped to return to his country once as Louis XVII. There is also said that a 3m tall giant is buried at this graveyard... (more about this in the cache)
