Guérande in French and Gwenrann in the Breton language, (meaning : white land) is a small town in Loire-Atlantique, in France, close from the Atlantic Ocean. It's the capital of the Pays Guérandais, an ancient region of the Duchy of Brittany.
Guérande is almost surrounded by the sea at the West, the Brière swamp at the Eeast and the Vilaine river by the North. At the south extends the sea resort La Baule. Guérande is known by the salterns which product a very fine, traditional salt and by the old town with fortifications.
The town has a very rich history, full of important events. The most important event is probably the signature of the first Guérande treaty in 1365. This treaty put an end at the Breton War of Succession between Joanna of Penthièvre and the Duke John IV. Then a second treaty was signed in 1381 by John IV and Charles VI, king of France. Guérande received the visit regularly of the Breton dirigeants like the duchess Anne of Brittany.
