Tips from the Community
Chateau Comper is the only castle that is historically linked to the forest of Paimpont (and thus to the Arthurian legend) and still exists today. Several legends attest that it is the birthplace and home of the fairy Viviane. More info at: https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ch%C3%A2teau_de_Comper
