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 trip to the shores of the eponymous island. He would remain on the island until death, his sanctity and gift of Miracles brought veneration and charity-seekers - mythically described as the island's first major population - from the mainland, eventually founding the Abbey of Sénanque in the hills of the Peninsula d'Aix.
