The château des fées, château défait or château du Waridon is a medieval fortress whose ruins lie on the upper Meuse near Le Waridon in the commune of Montcy-Notre-Dame) of the Ardennes. Its origins date back to between the 9th and 16th centuries. This castle seems to have inspired the château d'Oridon mentioned in various manuscripts and chansons de geste, as well as the château de Montessor in The Four Sons of Aymon.
