Abandoned Portuguese Billionaires Family Mansion The Lost Palace of the Rich & Wealthy

In today's video, I travel to Portugal and document one of the most incredible abandoned places in the world. The Palace of the Patriarchs is a once-summer residence for the patriarchs of Lisbon but its true origins lie with Count Burnay, one of the richest persons in Portugal, who renovated it during the 17th century. Having started in 1701 and ended in 1734. The palace has since undergone changes and restoration works in the 19th century and more recently in the 1940s. In recent years The palace is currently the seat of the rectory services and social actions of the Technical University of Lisbon but still has yet to see a glimpse of hoep as it lays forgotten in time, with only explorers coming to see what remains Inside The Lost Palace Of the Rich & Wealthy

If this video gets to over 5000 thumbs up I'll explore and film more in Portugal!!! In today's video, I travel to Portugal and document one of the most incredible abandoned places in the world.

Belive it or not but i went there twice before it got Vandalised

[@iamrobinlt1]

Kilz is a type of paint you could use to cover the graffiti... it would need cleaning and then paint the Kilz on it to cover it ...it comes in white and eggshell and can be tinted.

[@vensiedomingovillanueva3671]

thank you so much idol steve to heard another intro music and another vlog today, 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖staysafe and godbless

[@rosalalie6417]

Can you imagine what there other home was like. This was their summer home 😂.. it's sickening to see the graffiti. What a shame. And it's only going to get worse if something isn't done real soon.. lock it up very well. And fix it. . I'd pay to go inside most definitely. It's taxes for the town.

[@ingridmattosmonteiro6935]

I'm Portuguese and I'm so sad to see one of our palaces completely abandoned and vandalized. On the other hand thank you so much for the amazing video really! Please keep it up your work!!!

[@kurt3142]

I love how you appreciate architecture and old items and art which modern buildings have lost, and the respect you have for history.

[@mamacitabambi3558]

I wish the taggers who scarred up walls, the safe, etc... with graffiti, would have had the same respect for this incredible piece of history as Steve has... I just watched the video further, and I see Steve's addressing the graffiti issue. I pray they find who did it. To bad a reward couldn't be raised, because some people are more willing to report these things, when money is offered.

This is the beautiful Burnay Palace (Palácio Burnay). It belongs to the State and, for decades, has been a College Called ISCSP (Superior Institute of Social and Politics Sciences). I’ve studied here for 4 Years. It was a magical place. Last Year it has been vandalized and all the Beautiful paintings were robbed... I hope for the day that the palace will be restaured...

[@dipsydoodle7988]

You guys have a dream job. I have to say, I had the same gut reaction to the graffiti that you did. Who indeed. I can’t imagine anyone thinking their art was more impressive than that room and needed to be seen. Such a spectacular place. It makes me heart sad to see these places not being used.

[@christinerogers7127]

I appreciate all the craftsmanship that went into that beautiful mansion. I hope to own a mansion like that one day. In heaven of course.

[@SarahlabyrinthLHC]

Our mansions in Heaven will be far, far better than the most splendid building on this earth!

[@orlanariee]

I'm from Australia..This place is nothing like I've seen here . Absolutely detailed and stunning. The most beautiful place 😍

[@anacatarina8173]

I had no ideia you were in Portugal!! It makes me very happy to see an amazing explorer like you explore my country ♥️ I hope you liked your stay here and had fun!

[@missvagalume]

It's so sad to see a beautiful and historical place destroyed this way. I watch all your videos, and I see your care and respect for the places and the people that might have been ther before. A curiosity: I don't know if there is any place in Portugal with the same name, but there is a city in Brazil named "Curitiba", so now I feel ashamed to be a Brazilian.

[@marlenevazquez5763]

I know the government should protect these beautiful architecture and keep them as museum instead of letting it sit there get destroyed and rough. I am sure a lot of people will enjoy looking at the history and will appreciate the beautiful architecture.

[@Mariana-qw4cg]

Hey I'm from Portugal! I'm so happy to see you here exploring one of the most beautiful places we have here! Love from portugal 🇵🇹 ❤️

[@marcellabutler9716]

Your favorite hallway is also my new favorite hallway!!! Gorgeous

[@paradisedreaming6363]

Mine too!

[@mariebyrd2526]

That's crazy how people disrespect any place unless they are artists but that place is amazing I am enjoying seeing you guys go to places and share it with people in the world

[@amberlautaoja6541]

Wow that staircase is gorgeous with the red and carvings

[@jeanetteharris9952]

I’ve just been to Portugal and visited an incredible castle. OMG, people, I have seen some beautiful places thanks to folks who tour these amazing buildings so those of us who can’t take trips to see them in person get to see them. Thank you so very much Steve. This building is one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen. As you walked down the halls I imagined being there back in the day. Living there as a young girl. All the beauty around. I wonder is anyone could take it for granted. I have no words for how incredible it is. How fortunate the people were to have lived in such splendor. Keep up the good work Steve and always be safe. I’ll be following you in the future as I enjoy your soft respectful voice and above all our disgust with the graffiti. I certainly hope you are able to fine someone to clean it up. I know there are companies in the USA that do that kind of work so there are surely some in Portugal. Good luck. SE Kansas, USA

[@janicebreault1963]

Steve, I’m from NewEngland Massachusetts I know your from there also. I’ve been watching you since from the beginning, along with John,Josh, etc. I love the way you are so devoted to your videos and fans . It’s so relaxing to watch you . You are so calm, no loud voices, no people yelling in the back round. Anything can be restored Steve if you have the money ! Keep up the good work. ❤️🙏🏻 Stay safe !

[@JaggedThings]

I agree, enough is enough on the vandalism. It's not art when it damages the art of these beautiful abandoned places. Love the video. Thanks

[@lindadarnell2250]

It is a beautiful home sad people have no respect for other people's property and their history

[@everyhumandies]

Yeah, including Steve here - he amd several other big abandoned channels tell the whole world all about them, and then fools seek them out and tag them or worse. It is reckless garbage.

[@dorenedaniels7493]

I love seeing this it is very beautiful but I do like seeing the kitchen

[@jona4826]

Definitely gorgeous! I love the staircase same as the spiral case, the ceilings and carvings so beautiful. Thank you Steve for taking us along. By the way advance Happy birthday Steve! Thank you for sharing your adventures with us. Thank you for all your hardwork just to show us the beautiful abandoned places in the world. Take care and keep it up. God bless💗💗💗

[@arlenegonzalez3187]

Hi Steve! Watching from Burbank, California! I never miss an episode of your shows! Everyone of them is so good! ❤

[@imalittleeggroll]

Steve, the respect with which you document these places is top tier. It’s why I subbed and watch!!!

[@karencapps8786]

Much love ❤ always enjoy and appreciate the hard work you put into filming and editing. Top notch!

[@pattyherpel5032]

Great place. Would be nice to see it restored. I think a lot of abandoned places can be saved. Thanks Steve.

[@carolynjackson3437]

Thanks for the video. 👍🏽

[@sushiilulou]

Agree, I just don't get it why graffiti artists couldn't respect these houses just look at how majestic the architecture, I wish the keepers from that community to act and clean up the mess. Idk much as I am not as well traveled but I kinda hope they turn this into a public library to keep it preserved and be taken care of, it's sad how most of these wonderful places being abandoned to just decay. Amazing tour Steve, love your sincere mindset about almost everything, much love from Manila ♥

[@joanahope3013]

Those graffiti are no 'artists' Had they been, they would respect art when they Saw it. They are just miserable people who like to destroy, as they themselves cannot make beauty

[@loisford5873]

Such a gorgeous place...I really enjoy your videos... keep up the good work.

[@paradisedreaming6363]

Awesome explore!! Absolutely love those “sunlights”….they are so gorgeous! Stay safe Steve🤪

Hi Steve, love your video's. Watching them from Christchurch, New Zealand. I also love the older style houses/buildings/mansions, they have great character.

[@LA-nm4mn]

Wonderful documentary. I love your passion for wanting to preserve history. I love how you are so respectful and it breaks my heart, as well, to see graffiti. Hopefully they clean it up.

[@annalee3996]

Hi Steve, I'm from Georgia USA, I agree about today's architecture it has no life! It doesn't move you. Today's architecture doesn't move you, it doesn't breathe with stories to be told!! I too hate that these places are losing to people that have no heart by destroying these wonderful beautiful living places!!

[@janetodowd7578]

Wow to think someone used to live there, amazing beautiful place. Thanks Steve 😘

The architecture in this beautiful building is flippin Amazing, such a shame that it's being so neglected 😥.

[@lynn5415]

Hi !! I'm from down under (Australia)Enjoy your videos very much they are so well done. Like how you get right into the feel of the property you have come to see Thanks to all you guys the buildings may fall and just be a pile of stones and dust. Your videos will help to preserve the memory of the buildings ect for many years to come.

[@pedroantoniodacruzferreira1487]

I love how you treat the place with such respect and appreciation Steve! You seem to be a kind person. Grateful for this video. I am from Portugal and it saddens me to see Graffiti all over historical monuments. If I had any saying in this, these people would get the harshest prison penalties and the spray can manufacturers would get penalized and taxed to pay for the clean up of their products!

[@angelicaurquhart4516]

This was an amazing experience the art work in this place omg my husband and I lived this one so much.... watching from maine
