The Aber Wrac'h is a small village and port located on the Wrac'h river in the commune of Landéda in the department of Finistère in France, located in Brittany. The Wrac'h river source is Trémaouézan. It travels through Ploudaniel, Folgoët, Lannilis and Plouguerneau and enters the ocean in the estuary between the Sainte Marguerite peninsula and the headland of the Virgin Island. == Origin of the name == The Aber Wrac'h derives its name from the first immersed rock of its channel, “Ar Grach” which means “the old woman” (the fish). An alternative theory is that the name is derived from the “estuary of the fairy” which may be related to the alleged Gallo-Roman bridge located upstream of the river mouth (ruins still visible today) named Bridge of the Devil. British accounts of the 18th and 19th Century give the town's name as Averach. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Aber Wrac'h」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
