    Let us immerse ourselves in the intriguing story of Mister Marcel, he was a businessman, a father of three, and a loving husband! His life began in the bustling city center of Zurich, where he grew up and later took over the family business. The family business was a plaster shop for many generations. Marcel completely transformed it and turned it into a specialized plaster manufacturing company, and became prosperous in the process. But Marcel had a bigger dream. At the age of 50, he was ready to fulfill it. He sold his business and moved away from the bustling city center of Zurich to the peaceful French countryside. His dream was to convert a French manor into his dream estate. He found the property he was looking for, and he transformed it into a masterpiece using all the skills and knowledge he had accumulated over the years. Their children slowly moved out to the big cities seeking opportunities, while Marcel and his wife remained inside the manor until the final years of their lives. His beloved wife passed first, and he lived on the estate alone until in 2013 his dream was left behind forever. Unfortunately, his children are unable to reach an agreement on how to divide the massive property and its contents. They have been in a lawsuit for years and are thus not allowed to enter the Manor.
    Allow us to take you inside the walls of this unique property and show you what has been left inside.

I hope the family comes to an understanding so they don't lose out on their heritage. I'm no expert but I believe some of the furniture is very old and maybe valuable.

    Hello Leslie, thanks for another wonderful explore! I would be so grateful if I inherited any one of these abandoned places. And for those who do inherit these beautiful places and they do nothing but let them rot really breaks my heart. I would give anything to just be able to restore and help those who do not have a place to live. Here in the United States, we have a problem with homelessness and some places it’s worse than others. So just to think how awesome it would be for everyone to have a roof over their head and not worry. I just can’t understand why the government doesn’t step in to help fix some of these places and help the homeless!! Someday everyone will have a home and not have to worry about taxes or anything else. Just be happy and live forever!! Before you know it everyone will feel safe no matter where they are.!! GOD doesn’t break his promises!! Have a wonderful explore on your next adventure.
    Your friend,

    Love watching your videos, the places you go and we get to join in and see so many different places. Seems you have a genuine care for these places and protecting them more than the families. I’d be afraid to go alone, squatters, wild animals or weak timber’s. I can easily see you owning one of these places one day and restoring it beautifully! God bless!

    Well done! I especially liked the beautiful second floor woman's bedroom. (34:10) How touching that whoever made the bed, and carefully arranged the pillows for the last time, also laid a rose on the endtable - perhaps in her memory. Judging from the beautiful wallpaper, she obviously loved roses.

    This is the first of you videos I have watched in several months. I have just not been on the computer much. But it was worth my time to stop and watch this. I thoroughly enjoyed it. You have such a gentle way about you and your videos are very peaceful and easy to watch. It is such a shame when families are in disagreement when the parents die. All of this decay could have been prevented had they just put their differences aside and done what was right. Thank you for finding, videoing and sharing this beautiful presentation and giving us the opportunity to see what we would never otherwise be able to see. God bless you.

    Hi Lesley, first of all Gorgeous Manor!! 🤩Now seeing the RV 🚐...there is 2 beds...the kitchen table goes down & the cushions are laid 4 in a row for someone to put a sheet on & pillows & blanket, then the bed at the top where again you dress with sheet, pillows & blanket! We use to own a Camping Trailer same idea! When you talked about parents & 3 siblings, the children are adults & move out to a bigger city..but parents probably had a Document that showed the 3 siblings to divide all the stuff inside the Manor! But the 3 Siblings were fighting against each other for the stuff in the Manor...which is GREED!! Now as years go by from 2013, everything is decaying & soon Nothing will be left for Any of the 3 siblings! What should be saved is the beds, furniture, pictures, books, lamps!! Ok, Lesley...I love the Arched Doorways!! As for bedrooms, the pink one is my favorite, which I believe was the parents room-downstairs, then upstairs the yellow the bed was either turned or a different wall of that room-1 sibling, & upstairs red room was pretty also, this would be 2 sibling-pretty peacock wallpaper & knit or crocheting picture, then upstairs the small bed must have been the youngest sibling number 3 sibling! The balcony that was very large had 2 satellite`s a new version for cable tv! Now you said, why do people Not put up wallpaper & just paint...the reason is wallpaper is a lot of work on putting it up, & if it gets worn or dirty, it is hard work taking it off & then again hard work putting it up...especially if the glue dries quickly on backside of wallpaper!!
    Now you call Lanterns...is really Lamps next to beds, lanterns are usually outside or to be carried with a person to have light where you walk...if its too dark to see...no lights or electricity went out!! Take care & stay safe, Love from Central Illinois!!😊❤

    I was very angry at the selfishness of the 3 children that couldn't come to an agreement so their parents labor of love fell to ruins. Their father put so much love into building a beautiful home for his family. They could have sold it and split it 3 ways. Or better yet they could have finished it to become a bed and breakfast before letting it fall to ruins and now have nothing. Death brings out the selfishness of family members. I've seen it happen firsthand.
