Legend
The White Lady of Haapsalu
The canons of Haapsalu castle were monks, and no woman could live there. One of them fell in love with a young woman and smuggled her in disguised as a choirboy. When the bishop discovered the secret, he had her walled up alive in the wall of the chapel. On bright August nights at full moon, the shape of a white woman is said to appear in the chapel's round window, mourning her lost love. The town celebrates White Lady Days every August.

Haapsalu lossi toomhärrad olid vaimulikud ja ükski naine ei tohtinud seal elada. Üks neist armus noorde neidu ja tõi ta lossi, kooripoisiks riietatuna. Kui piiskop saladuse avastas, lasi ta neiu elusalt kabeli seina müürida. Selgetel augustikuu täiskuuöödel ilmuvat kabeli ümmargusse aknasse valge naise kuju, kes leinab oma kaotatud armastust. Linn peab igal augustil Valge Daami päevi.
