Astonishing Abandoned 17th Century Italian Palace of a Venetian Family

[@robertrossi8049]

Hi Lesley, I am Italian, and i live in Canada, we enjoyed your video, you asked questions about certain items. #1,the container on the wood stove that you said was for pasta, is really for heating water to be used for cooking. #2, the cabinets in the kitchen were not for live stock, but for storage of cheese, bread etc. . #3 The frames that looked like slays, are really bed warmers, that are put in the bed with a container of hot coal on the frame. Hope this was helpful to you. Keep those great videos coming. Stay safe.

This is the person on the Eugenics certificate on the wall: Victor Emmanuel II was King of Sardinia from 1849 until 17 March 1861, when he assumed the title of King of Italy and became the first king of a united Italy since the 6th century, a title he held until his death in 1878. So this was the home and family of the 1st King of Italy. Amazing. I really wish you took more time on the books, art and pictures etc, because that's where the real details and fascination lies, not just on walls and furniture. Edit: His great-grandson, the last king of Italy, Umberto II lived for 37 years in exile, in Cascais, on the Portuguese Riviera. He never set foot in his native land again; the 1948 constitution of the Italian Republic not only forbade amending the constitution to restore the monarchy, but until 2002 barred all male heirs to the defunct Italian throne from ever returning to Italian soil. (Well this explains everything being left behind). You have discovered a masterpiece of both mystery and history of unknown worth. Wow.

Those weren‘t „cages for living animals to be eaten“, how you imagined, that was the cheese riping cellar. Those People made their own cheese. To ripen, it got to be stored by possibly low temperature, that’s why the room layed a little bit downstairs. And the grit of those „cages“ should have kept any animals (flies and mice) away from that cheese.

The term "water closet" ("WC") was an early term for an interior or exterior room with a flushing toilet in contrast with an earth closet usually outdoors and requiring periodic emptying as "night soil". Originally, the term "wash-down closet" was used. The term "water closet" was in use in England as early as 1853.

[@kangirigungi]

This is what you should do. Take the best pictures of your explores, have them printed on photo paper, put them in fancy photo albums like those in this video, and put those in a safe place so they won't be lost even after KZbin is gone.

The three items on the floor @ 44'50" which you seem to call slats are vintage bed warmers funnily called "il prete" (singular, literally meaning "priest"). A hot brazier was put in its middle, and the whole thing laid under the blankets to warm the bed. I experienced these real life in the 1960s in my grandmother's house in northern Italy.

This palace has a very organic but presidential feeling. The brown colours, earths natural materials of strong metals and marble stones around the door arches and fireplaces and intricate designs make the objects in this palace look like strong tools that remind me of the bronze age. I also love the intricate design within the curved hanging symmetrical patterns like necklaces in roof plasters, cervices, chairs and arches so typical of the Ventian style. These intricate details seem to tell stories that keep the mind occupied. I would be a little scared of walking around in such a powerful place in the dark on my own. I have to applaud you Lesley. Thank you for taking us on this amazing and wonderful journey in the belly of this treasure. I love the toned down shadowy atmosphere you created throughout this video. It is very soothing to watch.

[@kryptonarie6367]

If ghosts and walls could talk... It's amazing to see all the furnishings are in such good condition, and there's no graffiti or damages from random people coming in and not respecting the property. In these kinds of grand estates, the basement and/or the upper most floors and/or rooms were usually reserved as servants the quarters, because the master of the house, his family, and his guests wouldn't have or been expected to climb the most flights of stairs. Just one more llttle note: wood furnishings are made from many different hard woods and veneers, not just oak, for example the large wardrobe closets in one of the bedrooms were a type of maple, and lastly some of the paintings were actually prints. I hope I'm being helpful, because this was a wonderful tour, thank you.

Yes, the top floor would have been the servants' quarters. And I would say, in regards to the sketches you discovered at the end, that someone who lived in the house was a bit of an artist themselves. There was definitely evidence of a high appreciation of art throughout the manor. Thank you for sharing this wonderful opportunity to see such a breathtaking hidden gem!

I suspect the person was an art student. Some of the sketches look like traditional drawing exercises. I think some of the small paintings in the rooms may have been done by the same person, especially the portraits.

The taller screened cabinet was to keep breads, pies and cakes in it, so the flies, bugs, and mice would not get to the food! This was in the days before aluminum foil and saran wrap folks, and critters were a problem even in a chateau or castle. They used to have round, domed metal 'screens' with a knob on top that you would place over a bowl of vegetables, or a platter of roast, etc, for the dining tables.

What a stunning house and time capsule, I want to move in!! I also would have rather been doing this during the pandemic, so I am living vicariously through you. Your voice is very calming! I am not sure if you get these comments already, but it would be nice if you slowed down when it came to pictures - paused on them for a bit so we can see them, you still move quickly. I wanted to see more in that photo album! I appreciate how respectful you are of the building and all the items in the house! What great explorers! Thanks for sharing!

I love it just the way it is... but someone needs to fix the roof please!

[@chuckbrasch4575]

The woodwork is fantastic! To realize all of those carvings are done completely by hand !!! To realize all that stuff is still there, untouched is beyond belief... Good show!!

I’m so happy to visit all these beautiful homes with you. But so sad to them falling apart. Makes you wonder what happened to the family ? It goes to show nothing lasts forever no matter how much money you have
