Vaux-sur-Aure (French pronunciation: [vo syʁ oʁ] ⓘ, literally Vaux on Aure) is a commune in the Calvados department in the Normandy region in northwestern France.
The Barons de Gratot (Argouges) resided at the Château de Gratot in Vaux-sur-Aure. According to the French Wikipedia a legend is that a Lord of Argouges met a Fairy woman who agreed to be his wife provided he never spoke the word "Mort" [death] which was considered profane language; however he spoke it and the Fairy vanished; this legend is associated with both Château de Gratot and the Château de Argouges at Argouges.[3]
