    I can’t believe there’s a warehouse full of major historically important vehicles just sitting there virtually abandoned. I’d really love for them to be in museums for the public to admire & enjoy and somewhere with professionals that can help to preserve these important pieces ❤️ The best urban exploration video I’ve ever seen!!!

    I did a little bit of digging, and I'm fairly certain that the Coat of Arms on the fancy Burgundy colored coach are those of Queen Mariana Victoria (MV), wife of King Joseph I of Portugal. The Arms are quartered with the Noble Families of Menezes, Castro and Braganza with what may be a depiction of the Arms of The Duke of Saldanha. Mariana Victoria was the eldest daughter of King Philip V of Spain and his wife Elisabeth Farnese. She lived from 1718 to 1781, placing this particular Royal Coach sometime in the late 18th Century. One hell of a find!!!

    The answer to “why” is probably rather simple. Someone has a passion for this stuff and appreciates the value in the history of these modes of transportation . The person or persons that collected these vehicles, obviously was dedicated to saving them whenever they found one. Glad they did. Hopefully one day someone will be able to restore something from this amazing collection. Even as survivors they are truly beautiful. Thanks for finding this collection.

    The gun in 36:11 is actually the well known German 88 mm Flak anti-aircraft gun (probably model 37). One of the best artillery pieces of WWII, it was used extensively in many roles. It looks complete with its carriage. Interestingly the gun is locked in position of ejecting the casing. The other gun in 46:08 is the 150 mm schwere Feldhaubitze 18 (''heavy field howitzer 18'') the main and best German heavy howitzer of WWII. It's missing a lot of parts. In 25:07 the tracked vehicle is an artillery tractor, possibly French-I don't have a clear view. I don't recognize also the tall vehicle in 24:35. From its wheels looks possibly German (edit: it's an Italian SPA TM 40 medium artillery tractor which was also in use by the Wehrmacht). In 24:55 Steyr 1500 truck. 24:26 possibly a dilapidated Opel Blitz truck. 25:26 Mercentes-Benz L300S, 28:29 Mercedes-Benz LG3000 3-axle heavy truck, 28:47 looks like a British made vehicle I'm not sure, 28:58 I think is a Czechoslovakian Tatra 27 a type which was used also by the Wehrmacht, 34:25 Ford V-3000S. This is a German made model, identifiable by its one piece windshield. The American Fords had a divided windshield. All are valuable WWII era military vehicles.

I'm amazed the interiors of some of those carrages are still intact after 200 years. Beautiful craftsmanship ..all made by hand with quality materials . The wood and paint used has held up well considering their age and various conditions these things must have been through before being stored in there. The dust covering them even acts as a preservative. I'm amazed that the glass on the building roof is holding up.

    Simple. Someone has been collecting these long time ago. It is under good roof. It is not forgotten or abandoned. People are working in close vicinity that know the owner. It is like seeing empty lots between the houses, owners are waiting for the time that they can sell it for the most. This is important for some future people that will be interesting to purchase and restore these things. It is a bank in one sense for them. Thank you guys for the footage. Lot of stress, planning, travel expenses, logistics and I can watch it for free, thank you again.

    This is the most engaging video of any explore yet. I absolutely LOVE the old French carriages. It takes me right to the time period and brings those people to life for me. Thank you so much for being diligent and getting the footage, it’s absolutely INCREDIBLE!
    P.S. have you considered that these were kept because they belong to a movie studio and were used in movies over the years? It’s unlikely, yes, but I know of places like this in the states where they belong to the studios and they only bother to restore them when they are going to use them in a movie. Until then they sit and deteriorate.

    Some comments: I've seen a carriage with partially painted Portuguese coat of arms and Pombal's ones, maybe belonging to a noble family either in Portugal or abroad. The big carriage where the explorer climbed to the roof was a XIXth century public transport, something that in Portugal was called omnibus, drawn by horses. I've seen clearly a German anti-aircraft/anti-tank 88mm gun, maybe the best of the entire WWII and another one, also German, the 150mm howitzer. In the beginning I also could see a German WWII truck, the Opel Blitz.

      Correct : the 'omnibus' was Paris public transport, from 'Hotel de Ville' (City Hall) in Paris to the town of Versailles, some 25 kms, where the immense royal palaces and gardens were (and still are)..That would be a sunday outing for Parisians...the benches on the roof were used when weather permitted it..

    This was the best video ever, absolutely beautiful carriages. The owner must not be living anymore or why else would it be abandoned. Dust webs everywhere so you can tell nobody has been there for a very long time. Great share with us, I really enjoyed it. 👍❤

    WOW! That was an exciting intro, really enjoyed your attempt to get in. It felt like I was there with you. The carriages and sleighs were beautiful. I was thrilled when you went on the top of the double deck bus. Thank you.

    A Hollywood studio would pay a fortune for all that stuff.

    Usually cushions were stuffed with horse hair...it just looks like straw. Looks like from a parade.. maybe to commemorate the end of WWII? Wonderful!
