      to be fair that is basically the historical southern netherlands in general,
      being ruled by differen empires wil do that to you,
      you wil find that the dutch are completely different, more direct and less humble
      (that isn't a bad thing, our vice is that we wil most likely discuss you when you are gone, we wil hold our tongue about things we dislike about you or mention them in an indirect way, a woman that was asked 'would you like to see flanders and the netherlands unite" answered no and when asked why she sighed and said, "I think we just are not as modern" in more direct words she fears that the Netherlands would force change onto us.
      It is positive and negative because we wil also defere our judgement of a person or situation until it has had a chance to really show who or what it is, the Dutch wil immediatly pass judgement on the spot, they may change that oppinion but you know
      anyway this is a country where multi miljonairs are often found hanging out with middle class people (though that does not really extend to so called marginals as much, it is mainly about behaviour and interests though)

    My home had 55 windows which I never considered - unless one broke - until I had it painted along with eaves and I paid a fortune to remove storms, screens and had them painted. Actually had some windows without corresponding rooms. We unearthed a small riom behind a wall which had 2 old Crystal stick lamps and a handmade pale pink silk and lace bedspread with a matching handmade lace cover. It was as if an early owner was hiding them. I also found 2 complete services of Limoges. One old Haviland and the other Pouyat. They were crated and found only after I saw a leak coming out of an unused coal room decades after moving in. That room creeped me out. Mine was a fraction of the size of this wonderful home. I miss it but not the upkeep which was exponentially more every 5 years. Crazy expensive. It’s nice that a family with children moved in to this special family home. Thanks for the tour.

    the window shades still work-the locking pawl (with the string attached), needs to be pulled pack as you crank, thus allowing the shade to lower-basically the same principal as the old wind-up phonograph mainsprings....push the crank towards the window (counterclockwise-which I think raises the shade), hold the locking pawl back, away from the retention gear ( by the attached cord), and it should lower......to raise them, just crank counterclockwise-no need to hold the locking pawl back....

    What amazes me the most about these types of videos is what a remarkable feat democracy is and how so many of our ancestors fought for centuries to overthrow these feudal and absolutism systems. Everyone always remarks about how "people built things to last back in the old days," which further reiterates my point. These chateaus and castles were specifically built with the intention of centuries of multi-generational rule. I wonder how his ancestors 500 years ago would feel to know that the modern heir is now the servant (of sorts) to the "peasants" who come to visit. I absolutely love to see these grand homes maintained and shared with the public, and it's a testament of character when these former nobility embrace their unique position in this position in the world to be stewards of our shared history.

    This is an amazing property! Love the fact that there is a sense of a family continuity (with the family portraits and heirlooms), is effortlessly done cause it belongs to a member of the same noble family who built the place. A lot of new chateau owners lack this element, some of them try to create a more aristocratic ambiance and not a boutique hotel deco but still you can sense that the real thing of ancestral heritage is missing. It is a lovely and well preserved chateau. Thanks for sharing, greetings from Athens Greece ❣️

    Wow! Beautiful, beautiful castle. How fun to see the treadle sewing machines. I have my godmother's 1910 Singer treadle and an 1850s treadle, have made quilts on them both.

    Those old sewing machines can be made to work again. Submerge the whole mechanism in kerosene and gradually the gummed up oil, which causes the seized parts, will loosen. It’s a laborious process, but it works.

      Getting a third old Singer today - amazing & fascinating machines. This one is a working electric model on a queen anne table - never seen another. Another is so perfect & like new with drawers stacked with it's entire history including original sales brochure and handwritten prices on all the models on offer. Would be very happy to ensure all go to a good home - what could be better than here to a guy who really appreciates and is enthusiastic about the design, history and technology.
