The Château du Taillan, also called the Château de la Dame Blanche, is a building listed as a historical monument of France located in the heart of a 100-hectare estate in Taillan-Médoc https://www.chateaudutaillan.com/ A very old legend is attached to the castle: Blanca, daughter of a Moorish chief settled in Gironville (Macau), defeated in Poitiers by Charles Martel, is said to have been seduced by the calm of the place and/or by an Aquitaine prince. The lady decided to settle there and had a fortress built, which official documents mention in the 12th century. Nowadays, when a white mist is seen over the vineyard in autumn, it is said that the princess is returning to wish prosperity to the estate. The reference to the white ladies is recurrent in Gascony and the Pyrenees.
