    An abandoned building is not a forgotten building, it just hasn’t found its new lover yet. This was once the residence of an 18th century noble and his beloved family. He was a general who was active in the French revolutionary wars and defended the country with great pride. Even after he had passed, his descendants continued to live and laugh within the walls of the castle. Inside these walls, many clues and artifacts tell the events that took place here. The number of historic artifacts that have been left behind over the centuries is unfathomable. Every single room and corner in this place holds precious memories from the former times. It has now been a long time since there was activity in this wonderful place. The descendants of the French general have moved on and relocated to the bigger cities in search of work, leaving the castle behind to slowly wither away. When you walk through this place you get the feeling of being time-warped into the past. Walking through the rooms of the castle gives you the feeling of being time-warped into the past. Even though it is empty of life the walls still tell tales of the people that once lived here. If the walls in this place could talk they would tell tails of the former occupation.

    Exploring these beautiful castles is really a nice insight into early years of life for some people.

If this chasracter wants to find out about the owners or occupants then go and see the Lawyers. Politicians. Local Govt. and others and demand or request answers.

If the owners no longer wish to live in them, just put it up for sale instead Or use it as an events place, a hotel, or a b&b. I love history and architecture, and would love to visit plsces like this. It's like taking yourself back into the past. Learning a lot about the people and what life was back then. I'm hoping that this could be sold and renovated to preserve the building's architecture and history.

Also the box you found under the little table I believe it was used to hold coffee and tea It was very expensive back in the day.

    I've looked at a few of the "abandoned" home videos here and see evidence of care being done within a year of the production of the video. I work at a museum and have experience dating how long an item has been neglected. The items in this property have had attention within the past year or so; not more than 5 years.
    Therefore, these aren't abandoned but merely unused properties that get occasional attention from their owners.

    Love your videos, and loved this one alot. I want to talk about that skull. First thing I noticed was the large amount of mounted trophies from hunts. Whether it was just the horns, skulls, or heads. My first impression was, the guy who lived here loved the hunt, could they have also hunted humans? Then we go into a nice sitting area that leads to a side room. It looked like we just entered a Vincent Price movie. A human skull on an old desk in a red room with a sword on the mantle. As fascinating as that was, that was a dark turn. If that skull was real, no one just has that sitting on a desk for light hearted decor. I also noticed the boards that came out of that same desk. Those looked like paddles for spanking punishment. Those were used on children in the old days for discipline. That makes sense seeing that pic of the boys and the priests. I think this school was used as a religious school for boys and unfortunately bad things happened in places like that. I would love to know more about the history of this place. Also, that coat of arms on the gate caught my attention. A pyramid? In a chapel of God? That screamed Illuminati or Masons. Possibly a section of Skull and Bones, which would explain the skull on the desk. This house as beautiful as it is, may have alot more skeletons in its closet.

      The mixture of pagan and catholic iconography is not a coincidence. As for the size of the lodge being too small for a school, perhaps all is left is the original hunting lodge, boys could have been housed in separate buildings that may no longer exist.
      Just a thought.

And for heaven's sake why not salvage all the furniture possible. And fixing the roof would be the first think before beginning work on the interior would help so much, but I'm sure would take loads of money, so to save what they can to redeem some of what is probably otherwise a huge loss would surely help.

    Remeber to ALWAYS close taps after you have opened them. Eventhough there is currently no water. It can just mean the main supply have been closed and can be opened at any time. It is common to close the main supply when you close up a place incase a pipe burst. If they open it and unaware of water running in a bathroom far up somewhere it can run for days and weeks and even flood the place and cause further damage without anyone knowing it. Water for farms is pumped out of a bore hole and then stored into a tank. So water is available always just not in the bathrooms.

    I was wondering… In the future, do you plan on continuing down this path or do you see yourselves branching out in some way. (Career path wise).

    It's a shame to see all of this beauty going to waste. What a grand place this must have been in its day! It's hard to believe that the family just left all of this to go to waste. Waste makes me angry. Do they not have conservation of buildings in France? If it is a nature reserve then it seems feasible that they would want to preserve the castle as well. Countries differ. I don't know what the rules are in France, but I think there should be some way to preserve all this beauty. Guess it like it is in the US. You have to have deep pockets. Love the videos, even if it makes me sad to see all the abandonment. Love ya! Blessings!

      This kind of thing is an epidemic. The people who are asking for money in order to do this need to consider their criteria. Fulfilling rthe publics wrong ideas is about as ethical as nothing. If this character wants to find out about the owners or occupants then go and see the Lawyers. Politicians. Local Govt. and others and demand or request answers. Its time this society was cleaned up. But it will take force to do it . We are thinking of flming a chocolate factory in order to improve kids education. Got it or not? We sent out 2000 mails re 25.000 avoid deaths covers up. We got no responses cept Police attacxks.All websites destroyed.

The piano you showed us would have dated to around 1820 and are often referred to as "square grand piano's"; At 29.42 minutes the box decorated in chinoiserie was a tea caddy which still contained the pewter containers used to keep the tea fresh. You did a wonderful job exploring this castle! Thank you for sharing.

I love to look at the photos found of previous owners. The last cabinet on the top floor I could sit in front of for hours and hours looking at every single photo. I can sort of “feel” who the people were and what their lives ,ay have been like. We don’t have places like this in the U.S. Thank you for sharing these beautiful places with us!
