    It is hard to see such a beautiful property brought to ruin by fire. Nature is impressive and unstoppable in Her process of taking back whatever humans fail to maintain. This place brought much joy into many lives, and will live on in the videos and photos of couples wedding days. What it may come to as time passes we cannot know, but there are possibilities for it still, and someone may revive what is left to new life. Thank you for sharing this with us, and stay safe out there…you are an important voice for these places that have fallen silent with disaster and the passage of time.🖤🇨🇦

    The first place was horse stables, then likely a carriage house/garage before a B&B. Outdated or not, it's beautifully appointed. Hope it's rescued before it's too late. Shame about the castle. ~Topic adjacent: Having been there in person, watching Notre Dame burn profoundly affected me. I wept as if I were still Catholic and it was my home parish. I feel for the couples who wed at the castle seeing it now. Too sentimental I guess.

    Once witness of the beginning of many new lives, is now standing with uncertainty.
    After watching the present condition of this once magical fairytale castle, the very first thought came in my mind is fire can be furious. It can light up or burn down a place completely. Feeling very sad to see such condition.
    It's like part of human life, one moment you're very important to someone and next moment something like that happens and you're forsaken.
    Such a quiet, beautiful place in the lap of mother nature. People who got married and spent quality time there must have felt sad.
    Editing of this videography is done like a pro. The blending of present and previous conditions was amazing.
    Quite a wonderful journey. Take care. Stay blessed, happy and healthy. 👍👍🙏🙏😇😇

    Leslie did it again! Well done! This story was so incredibly sad. Just broke my heart to see the damage done. The 2020 pandemic which continues to 2021 was definitely a moneymaker for the medical facilities. Again breaking my heart as so many people perished and struggled for regain health when that could’ve been avoided as well. We have cures for this however it would cost the medical field billions. When people aren’t sick they don’t make money. OK I’ll get off my rant. I bet that venue was absolutely stunning when it was in use. Even the “barn“ was beautiful. Thank you Leslie you really did a great job. I loved the round windows in the castle. And the tiles on the sides of the fireplace must have been absolutely incredible! I’m glad you did the aerial view as well. Put things in perspective. Thank you again. Love from me in Northern California💜🤟🏻🎄😎😘🇺🇸

    Hi Lesley, beautiful sitting rooms & yes love the chandeliers! In the castle that burned, it is strange how some furniture didn`t burn, & vase on fireplace didn`t burn & one chandelier still hanging...until the rest of the ceilings fall down! Someone still cuts grass & trims bushes! Now such a beautiful church from outside, too bad it was locked not to see inside. Thanks for sharing another unique castle, bed & breakfast still in tact & church!

    Heyy dear Lesley, That was actually a wondeful location, you were showing us viewers. Thank you for sharing this Urbex adventure.
    I especially liked the photos, you inserted in your video showing that castle with the amazing interior before the devastating fire.
    That's such a pity how the castle was nearly completely destroyed by this fire. Even some of the rooms still having pieces
    of furniture were showing how beautiful this location must have been back once in the active days.
    So, this is really a very sad story. I also liked seeing this smaller building with some beautifully furnished rooms and of course
    also the neogothic church, where a lot of wedding celebrations were held. - Very interesting explore, dear bro, which I enjoyed watching.
    Stay safe, peace and many hugs. - Wishing you and Maureno a lot of fun and many more new inspirations on your grand tour.
    Blessings and kindest regards to you and to Maureno.

All the furnishings I would love to have the opportunity to be able to go in and clean up all the debris just to be a le to see how beautiful it could look. Just to clean it up and get a personal look at everything we could just show to the visitors who are not going thru the BEAUTIFUL and charming that the flooring and woodworking are the best. I just love to be a le to see it all. Thank you for the views and see what you can find when you have the time to clean it up and Polish and then go back for a. BEAUTIFUL clearing out of the kitchen and house. God Bless you for finding all the Palaces and Castles. S.Chmielewski.
