This particular castle has been sold to a new owner who is currently renovating the premises. If you by any chance know the location of the castle please don't try to enter it because this is punishable under French law with a fine of 15000 Euro and or one year of imprisonment. The castle is NOT abandoned anymore!

Exploring abandoned places is my hobby and finance it all out of my own pocket and the donations I get from the people who love watching the documentaries we make... A small donation would be greatly appreciated! ► www.patreon.com/brosofdecay

  • I so wish they'd turn these into museums and open to the public to tour, so they'd be cared for. Parts of history being lost.

    Is good to see a YouTuber who doesn't turn this kind of video into a joke, instead shows lots of respect for everything in that property.

    It breaks my heart too seeing these masterpieces in ruins. The amount of abandoned castles in France alone is mind blowing. Just a standing reminder of a different time and how people used to live.
  • The painting at 30:40 is of Sweden’s and Norway’s King Oscar I. You can see the Swedish standar/crest with the crown and our flag’s colour, left corner. Oscar was born in Paris 1799 and died a In Stockholm 1859. As an historian, I reacted of course…that’s our king in a castle in 🇫🇷 France❤️ Thank you for the glimpses of history you give us. And for your utterly respect for the people who once lived there…and for those left behind.🙏🙏🙏Happy holidays to you, Bros of Decay💫✨💫
  • It’s so wonderful that someone has purchased and is renovating this grand old castle. It would be such a shame for it to just decay away.
  • @nicohusky
    That castle should hear the laughter of children again, feel them running up the staircases. Become a happy place once more. Too beautiful to let rot.

    As a child in Germany, I lived in the gatehouse of a walled 1629 castle with huge iron gates we had to open to let folks enter. We were forbidden from entering above the second floor of the castle itself but that did not stop me from exploring. I was a nine year old American girl ,and to this day remember the feeling of lying on an intricate parquet floor in awe of the painted ceilings. There were cherubs, angels and birds in the clouds!! The people that owned it were painting every room garish dark purples, oranges and bright greens covering all the intricate wood and plasterwork. I was in awe then angry that all this beauty was going to be obliterated. Better it not be touched than destroyed by ignorance and greed. Thank for appreciating the gifts of the past and sharing them with us.
  • I want to take a moment and thank you for showing us the best shots of furniture, clothing and artwork. Out of all our binge watching, you boys are the best 👌
  • Still can't belive how people leave behind the history of they're family. This place is beautiful.

    If the castle was sold with all those books inside there could be some rare books amongst them as well as the paintings and tapestries. Overall nice castle - would be nice if the new owners would give you a tour of the restored castle.

    Still trying to pick my jaw up off the floor! As someone who does old fashioned hand embroidery and other intricate crafts, I'm in awe of the tapestries! The detail is phenomenal! It baffles me that people would commission these massive pieces, especially with a very unpredictable, low life expectancy, considering how long things took/take to create!

    When I see things like this it makes me wish I had enough money to purchase and restore all the beauty and wonder these places once had. I am happy to read someone else is restoring this place, I just hope they do it justice. My thoughts about the different areas and stone are it's possible the "rich" area was built first and servants were in the basement, then years later an addition added for servants because the family was larger. So that could be why there is a difference in stone as well. But all of it deserve special care and love to restore it to its glory and shared with others again. I also hope whoever is restoring it will open it and show it kept most of the original pieces of history. I know as a book reader I'd love to flip through all those books shown, there's probably tons of history in them too!! Thanks for sharing 😁
  • @sophiekatt7027
    It breaks my heart that such fine artwork and books are going to rot and ruin. I feel certain there is hundreds of thousands of dollars in one-of-a-kind pieces and first-editions and original paintings! Heartbreaking, really.
  • I was so thrilled that you found the original kitchen of the castle. I can just imagine all the bustling work going on in this place from early morning to late especially when the family entertained. The whole castle was great to watch as you went through it. Thanks for your time and effort to bring to us the history of long long ago 🌻
  • @my2cworth4U
    Extraordinary! In Australia, this property would be taken over by the National Trust and painstakingly restored by volunteers, then opened for public interest. It's unbelievable how all this can be abandoned at any stage by the owners. Thank you for showing us this amazing find.
  • What’s sad is that everything in there is going to be lost to decay. Those beautiful furnishings, books, lamps,tables etc.. what a shame and horrible waste.
  • @JacindaH
    Every single part of me wants to clean and restore this place.
  • @starbuono825
