Etymology
Saint-André-Hubert is named after the country's eponymous 1st century patron saint. Legends describe the Saint to have been tied to a mill-stone and thrown from the coast of Hyères, after which the sea became calm and they survived the mill-stone's journey to the shores of the eponymous island. He would remain on the island until death, his sanctity and gift of Miracles inspired veneration and charity-seekers to migrate from the mainland. They are mythically described as the island's first major population. Eventually, these early migrants founded the Abbey of Sénanque in the hills of the Peninsula d'Aix nearby the supposed landing-point of the mill-stone.
