The story: the entry of horseshoes into the repertoire of lucky charms dates back to the tenth century in Western Europe. From England to Ireland, legend associates the equestrian object with Saint Dunstan, the patron saint of blacksmiths and goldsmiths. It is from him that the tradition of hanging a horseshoe at the entrance of houses comes from him to provide them with spiritual protection. Since then, there has been a lively debate about the direction in which the horseshoe should be worn or hung. Some consider that it must be “U” shaped to keep luck inside. Others believe that it should be hung upside down, so that luck falls on you when you cross it.
