But if your family left for Brazil in the 1800s, this can't be your family. This family was in Portugal in the 1800s as the palace has only been abandoned for 30yrs. There are many Vasconcelos e Alburquerque families, but they aren't necessarily related, as is the same for any other Portuguese family name. Many unrelated families with the same last name.

Ahh, this was such a beautiful find! It really should be a museum if no one is going to live in it ~ my goodness, what a lot of history in this place! The books, dolls, sewing machine base, photos, furniture ~ wow, it had it all, even a chapel! On the old stove, the reason there was a water spigot is because they would heat up a large amount of water all at once in the reservoir ~ stoke the fire on one side, heat water on the other. Those stoves were the ingenious modern appliances of the day! Also, I never realized it before ,but I think when that place was built must have been in the early 1700's, because of how thick the walls were, how narrow the hallways were, and the fact that they had a built in chapel. Oh my, I would love to know more of the history of that place! Also, in case you ever encounter a chapel or religious altars or shrines again in your travels, you should know that climbing around on top of them is very disrespectful. Going behind the stairs and looking out was not bad, but standing on top of the altar....oohhh...it's just not respectful. You guys are so careful usually, and so I am sure that you didn't mean any disrespect, but you should know that regardless of whether it's a Buddhist or Shinto shrine, a Christian altar, or a Muslim or Jewish synagogue, you should try to be as respectful as possible. That is someone's place of worship to their Deity.

I don't think so. The cover says 1937, march 3.-13, Berlin. Because of the group photo, it looks like a conference or something like that. So I looked up, what was in march 1937 in Berlin and I found this: "In Berlin hatte die Arbeitstagung des Weltrundfunkvereins begonnen. Sie dauerte bis zum 13. März. Themenschwerpunkte waren die Wellenverteilung und das Urheberrecht gewesen." = The working conference of the World Broadcasting Association had started in Berlin. It lasted until March 13th.

@@jacquelineschoder5294 My only point is that it need not have tied them to fascism, and could be perfectly innocent. The Olympics brought the world to Germany so using the principle of parsimony it seems to be the simplest answer. And the pic of the German Olympic swimming/diving Stadium is a strong evidence. Why else would they be at that particular venue? I mean we are only talking about a few months difference, but yes the 1937 date is suspicious. Could they have had film developed in 1937 for a 1936 trip. We did not used to have digital cameras. Speedy film development was pretty uncommon. Then again they were minor aristocracy so they might have just stayed on in Germany, or simply been part of the Portuguese diplomatic delegation. The possibilities are endless! Cheers!

I think more than one family has lived in this building some of the original items are still there from when it was built, but another couple moved in some time after the other family fled (probably during WW2 given the photos we saw) and they brought some more modern appliances/items to live in the modern age! Did anyone notice the energy saving globe in the light fixture? So sad to see it rot away its a historical building the family never came back and the place hasnt been looked after or maintained some of those floors are sketchy!

To me, someone was living there not long ago. It is way too clean in some of the rooms, like that Library. Pringles didn't start until 1967, so that can with the keys that was in the desk had to be after that for sure,but it really does not seem like it's been vacant for 30 to 60 years, other than the antiques and photo albums, but they may have still been there from generations gone by. The doll house appeared to be made of cardboard. I had a Barbie dream house in the late 60's that was made of cardboard and opened up like a suitcase almost, but unfolded. So, I think people were there in the 70's and possibly 80's even. I would love to know more about this place. I LOVE the tiles in it as well. Thanks for a great explore.

One of the photos is of Luís de Albuquerque Pimentel e Vasconcelos (1795-1882). If I am correct, he was the father of José Maria de Albuquerque Pimentel de Vasconcelos e Soveral, the First Barão de Fornos de Algodres (Baron of Fornos de Algodres). I am not positive, however, I believe that the location of the estate is near Fornos de Algodres, Guarda District, Centro Region, Serra da Estrela Subregion (east of Viseu). The title of Baron of Fornos de Algodres is now extinct; there are no other holders of that title.

Correct me if I 'm wrong, but I believe that many times these places are abandoned due to taxes owed or taxes owed on the estate. And, in some countries, it's possible to refuse acceptance of the estate due to the amount of taxes the heir(s) would have to pay out of pocket.

I so enjoyed the tour of the house and to have seen its situation in relation to the road beforehand. The antique beds are breathtaking and yes, it is sad to see such beauty left unprotected. The linens in the hallway chest, if they are old, may be as valuable as some of the furniture. When I watch your videos, and I do so enjoy your commentary and the care you show to each place and item, I also read many of the comments. There is often something of interest added by a viewer and this time I see many that are critical of the young woman who was standing on the altar. I did get a shock when I saw that and I am going to assume that it was done out of ignorance rather than malice. The heresy mentioned would have been appropriate because many altars have a crucifix in the place where she stood and her arms were spread as Jesus' were on the Cross. I will give her the benefit of the doubt that she did not intend to offend but it is also odd that she would have been unaware of the symbolism. Sorry for the discordant note on your video presentation but the event is most unfortunate and you may consider an edit of your video.

Since Jesus was as phony as the tooth fairy I'm sure any disrespect would be impossible.

@@beittefillahproductions Respect comes in many forms and for more than religious symbols but it is obvious you are intent on snuffing out any comment that does not agree with your thinking. How unfortunate for you. I pity your state of mind and hope you can learn to show a better regard for the beliefs and customs of others. Usually people who cannot tolerate differences in others or their differing views resort to bullying as you have done.

Stunning palace to explore. Poland was officially neutral during WWII, but they allowed America to put a secret radio base in the Azores. Had it been known, it would have cost them their neutrality. They were officially allies to England, but as England did not call upon them for aid, they chose to be neutral. I think some Portuguese were involved in gathering and passing on information to the allied nations that were fighting in the fields. The kitchen was not ever shown to visitors,so they were often very basic. The downstairs bedrooms and bath may have been servants quarters, and there was likely an outbuilding for seasonal labourers and groundskeepers. There may not be a descendant suitable or able to take on the Count’s title and lands in these current days, and without a male heir the title and lands would revert to the King once more. There were so many beautiful antiques and tapestries left behind...it is really sad. My sense of political situation suggest that the family left to escape Franco, and his determination to rule Spain and Portugal during WWII. You may declare your neutrality, but to a dictator that just means no one will come to your aid if he attacks you.🖤🇨🇦

A big grand house like that would of been occupied by German officers of very high rank,and even used as command post's.So it is possible that the family that lived there pre war could of been thrown out by the Germans (or perhaps they fled before the Germans reached there) And maybe some post war family members moved back,hence the modern bits that we see,but of course they would not have been as wealthy as before the war,and perhaps could not afford to keep the house in repair.Sorry just my "vision" of what I see 😉 was good to see Jordy making a return to the Camera,he has been missed.

Ian Camm Depending on where the property is, it might not have been cost effective to house military officers there...they were generally given a mansion near the capital city, and a headquarters set up there as well. There is not enough signs of a German occupation...as we have seen in so many places we KNOW they took for their use.🖤🇨🇦

The faucet on the stove upstairs was for the water that was added to a storage section on the stove. water was heated by the fire that heated the oven in the stove. Hot water all day, as long as the oven was hot, cooking and washing.
