From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Blanchefleur is the sweetheart of Perceval in Chrétien de Troyes' Perceval, le Conte du Graal. She is Gornemant's niece, and is rescued by the hero while her castle is under siege.
In Wolfram von Eschenbach's Parzival, where she is called Condwiramurs, she becomes Parzival's wife and bears him two sons, Kardeiz and Loherangrin (Lohengrin).
