Magical Brocéliande

Just like Celtic interlacing patterns, the threads of history, nature and myths weave their way through Brocéliande. They alternate, intertwine and permeate through the rock, water and trees to continually reinvent this legendary, yet also very real, universe. Humankind has left its mark on the forest with sites bearing witness to prehistoric times, more recent history and industry but ail this pales against the memory of Arthurian legend in Brocéliande. Brocéliande's charm is heightened by the presence of wondrous beings, who were legends before becoming our first literary heroes - the knights, enchanters and fairies Viviane and Morgan Le Fay. It is not the splendour of the majestic or wild landscapes that strikes visitors to Brocéliande but rather a feeling of belonging and being rooted thanks to the powerful, beautiful and age-old story that will forever be told. This physical landscape is also the legendary realm of water fairies, perilous valleys, heathland ghosts and of course Merlin, the very spirit of these parts.

Like a guide leading visitors into the forest, this monograph recounts its many facets which, when combined, form a unique, deep-rooted and magical place.
