The note at 34:58 is probably a mother's day card made by one of the children and was probably accompanied with a handmade gift. Here's the translation in case anyone is interested: "Happy birthday mom (could also mean happy holiday). My favourite mom I love you very much. On mother's day I offer you this beautiful gift and I hope that you will be very happy because I am the one who made it. Mom, you spoil me too much. Patrick"
Thank you for sharing the translation and your insight! That note adds such a personal and heartfelt touch to the story of this family. It’s incredible to think about the love and memories left behind in such a place.
Great find, I'm so glad it is not vandalize. A treasure, time capsule. I Always think where what and why it was left like this. Thank you for your hard work, and sharing this Beautiful home and history. Love and Light Alway's from Australia 👏👏🙏😥
Thank you so much! 😊 It really is sad to see such a beautiful place left behind with so much history still inside. I'm glad you enjoyed the video - your support means a lot! 👍❤
That home is so beautiful. Thank you for taking that difficult journey to document and share your findings. Beautifully done. Keep going. You’re doing great! Sofie from San Antonio Texas
"Thank you so much. I really appreciate your kind words. It was definitely a challenging journey, but capturing and sharing this place makes it all worth it. Sending greetings from here to San Antonio!"
Thank you! Ah, that makes sense now - a fire stoker! It’s incredible to find such unique items preserved here. I’m glad you enjoyed the video and helped solve the mystery!
The brown wooden rings in the draw ,are for a wooden curtain pole ,for hanging curtains up .I really enjoyed the tour of the Castle ,such a waste of beautiful things .
Thank you for explaining that! It's fascinating how even the smallest items, like those curtain rings, give us insight into the castle's history. I’m glad you enjoyed the tour - it really is a shame to see such beautiful things left behind!
Thanks for the insight! That makes perfect sense - a blacksmith furnace would definitely explain the bellows. It's amazing to discover these hidden pieces of history in places like this!
The fabric on the wall was called a cross stich. It is a pixilated way of making a picture. Each pixel is an X made in yarn or string. It was a hobby women of means often had, and the pieces were passed down through generations, if they were any good. Do you have any ability to look up and see if there are any death records of the Lady of the house using her passport? Or her marriage information and then husband's death records.
At 1:05, if you don't know which country the family is from, I think it might have been better to say "from his ancestors' country in Africa" rather than referring to Africa as a country. Africa is a very large continent, it would be like saying that someone is from the country of South America. I don't mean to be rude, I just wanted to point out this detail.
Thank you so much for pointing that out! You're absolutely right - Africa is a vast continent with many countries, and I should have been more specific. I really appreciate the feedback and will be sure to adjust that in future videos!

Very well done. The Blue room is my favorite. The light of love is still there.

The mystery item is used to stoke fires, you pump it to give the fire oxygen. Amazing video

32:16 Bellows from a large furnace or fireplace...probably a blacksmith furnace.

"Would be my fav room, if not for the bats"
That was a good one
The bats definitely make it a bit less appealing, but it’s amazing how the room still has so much character. Glad you enjoyed that moment!
Stunning. Looks like they havent been there since the 90s according to the technology
Thank you! Yes, it really does seem like time stopped in the 90s here. It's incredible how much has been preserved, almost like a time capsule.

Unfortunately, records in Europe are not nearly as extensive as they are here in the U.S.. Thank you for explaining what the fabric was!

i need more details
its tough to find more! no one knows what happened
Love your videos! The only thing I do not care for is the music through the entire video. It’s hard to focus on what you’re saying with the music.
Thank you for the feedback! I will definitely keep that in mind for future videos. :)
Yes the music is so annoying , just being honest
