Brocéliande : Histoire ou légendes ?

Brocéliande, also called by tautology Brocéliande forest, is a mythical and enchanted forest cited in several texts, mostly linked to Arthurian legend. These texts, dated from the Middle Ages for the oldest, feature Merlin, the fairies Morgane and Viviane, as well as certain knights of the round table. According to these accounts, the forest of Brocéliande lodges the Vale of No Return, where Morgane traps unfaithful men until she is thwarted by Lancelot du lac; and the Barenton fountain, famous for making it rain. Brocéliande would also be the place of the retirement, the imprisonment or the death of Merlin.
