Heroic abandoned CASTLE in France dating back to the Renaissance era | We explored it!

[@yaddahaysmarmalite4059]

Very historic. That kitchen was amazing.

[@marandakind3880]

Been watching your adventures for about three months now and love every explore. I see at the beginning of these comments that someone said that you should do more research on some of the items like the bed warmer that you found, but I disagree. I really like that this is a true journey, your journey, not some fake know-it-all's journey. That gives your viewers a chance to participate in your explore and I think that is great! Don't change a thing, just be yourself. I think that you are charming.

[@colleenmarsh9603]

Hope Remon get well fast. Please keep safe you both love and hugs.

[@gillgiannas9853]

Love you're videos yours are the best and most professional. Wishing Remon a swift recovery. You may be interested to know that the items in the kitchen are not for collecting ash from the nobility they are actually bed warmers, which the servants would fill with hot coals and then use them to warm up the bed before their employers retired for the night. Take care and thank you for your wonderful videos.

[@gloriahanes6490]

3:55 .... A bed warming pan with hot coals placed inside used to heat up the mattress to keep the sleeper warm and cozy. The butler's ash holder for disposing of cigarette butts is much smaller and usually about 6" in diameter and a very short handle about 5" long. Then, we have the crumb tray which is about the same size as the butler's ash holder left on the sideboard to clean crumbs off the table with a small brush. 6:42 ... This room was the butler's pantry and would have had shelves along the walls or more cabinetry to store food and pantry items.

I want to tell you that your channel is my favorite. You are so sensitive and careful when you explore a property. You show such respect. I also want to tell you that your English is fantastic! Thank you from Canada.

[@cynthiakarras9728]

This is so awesome and amazing. The money from all these items can be thousands and thousands.

[@scottmaytham3429]

I bet the architect, previous or current owners would be glad to know. The fences are working as designed. Right Ramen

@@ladytamaya4737 ..... I beleive they were / are written in French and unless he is fluent in the French language he may not know the titles. They definitely belong in a museum or literary library. I love to read and to me this is heartbreaking to see sooooo many books sitting and not being read. 🥸🤓📚 .

[@musiciankitty]

U were very brave to explore on your own. Poor Remon. It really wasn't as big on the inside as I thought it would be - could easily be restored (with bathrooms!). Need a rare book dealer to look at books - such a shame to see them left to decay. Excellent as usual. stay safe.

[@bernierodis5548]

I have watched some of your videos guys. May you always be safe and secured. Earlier, you filmed a dilapidating mansion in a remote place. I am sure you always have your complete first aid kits that includes antidotes for bites and for any untoward incidents or accidents. Stay safe always! I love your videos/ niche. May Remon recover soon from his injury.

[@beinghuman943]

These books must be restored. They can actually give a lot of valuable historic wisdom.

[@sparkyggreatmusic450]

Prayers and best wishes from California to Remon. Hope you have a quick recovery. We see the sacrifices you all make to bring us these amazing videos! Please let us know how Remon is doing over the next days.

[@educatedgypsee2351]

Yes I Agree, it’s just a waste of knowledge and history to let those books rot These castles are incredible

[@patriciasentz4950]

Enjoyed this video sooooooo much! All the fireplaces, the stonework, the beautiful woodwork and furniture. So sorry about Ramon and hope he's recovering nicely. He missed an awesome explore!

[@celiajarvis3168]

The books seem to be part of the character of the castle. Probably some generations of intellectuals, love for knowledge, great respect for books, the written word. Otherwise, the books would have been either trashed or destroyed.

[@potatoesandpickles]

That’s very true and a wonderful point! We could learn so much

[@girl5998]

The pan hanging on the wall with the long handle is a bed warmer, an ash receptacle has a shorter handle and the top of it is solid no holes.

[@Berkana]

I'm pretty sure that long pan thing that you called an ash collector is actually a bed warmer. The servant would put a few of the dying coals from the fire place into that pan, and it would warm the pan up just enough to act like an iron. Then the servant would warm the beds with it. They had fancy ash trays for collecting ashes, and ashes from cigars and cigarettes don't accumulate predictably nor slowly enough to make collecting them by hand a reasonable solution.

[@markwalford-groom]

hi again maureno ,you were almost right about the copper pan next to the old clock..it was filled with hot coals and used as a bed warmer like a hot water bottle

[@gregmaure2315]

Don't guess at things you have no knowledge about. Do your research first and give you're followers legit info...

[@sarahstrong7174]

The copper pan on a long handle looks far too big for collecting cigarette ash in. I believe it is a bed warming pan. Hot embers & coals would be put into it & once it was closed up, it would be carried to the bedroom & be put into the bed & rubbed around over the sheets to warm them & reduce any dampness, then taken to the next bed. In big houses a servant might have to take the warming pan to a lot of rooms. It did cause a few fires. Sparks could escape through the small holes.

[@JaniceWithTheTarlovCysts]

My Grandma in Nova Scotia still had her bed warming pans in use up until she died in the early 70's. They were very similar to the ones in the castle. Also frequently used with the pans were bricks that were placed on an open fire or wood stove and placed at the foot of the bed at night. They were surprisingly good at keeping the bed warm.

[@sarahstrong7174]

@@JaniceWithTheTarlovCysts Thank you for sharing that. I have used bricks warmed in an aga & as long as you wrap them up well they stay warm for a long time.

[@Malibu_Dawn]

@@gregmaure2315 Mark is right. It is you who has no knowledge.

[@lindatimmons3675]

Prayers for your buddy, Remon, prayers that he will recover and be back on the road with you again soon. I love going into all these wonderful magnificent places with you guys. Unfortunately, they will just be left to ruin as it seems no one is interested in at least trying to check on them. It just breaks my heart to know that somewhere out there is descendents and ancestors of the people that just dont know they are gone. And that they left such a beautiful place. This was, as always, a wonderful journey into someones once beautiful home.

A couple and their three children bought the Château d'Asnières, in Saumur, in Cizay-la-Madeleine last December. They are currently appearing in the M6 ​​show: “The castle of my dreams”. Once upon a time there was Carole and Yann. Previously, she worked in real estate, while he was a public works worker. And one day, the couple decided to change their lives to buy the castle of their dreams. This has been done since December 1st. Accompanied by their three children, Carole and Yann became the happy owners of the Château d'Asnières, in Saumur, in Cizay-la-Madeleine.

We are your biggest fans here in San Antonio, Texas! We watch your videos every day, even if it's only just one that we have time for, we make time for it. That's our relaxation. Thank you for bravely exploring this Castle on your own, as another person said I would be afraid to be in there all by myself. Prayers and blessings for Remon, we hope that he wasn't hurt too badly! 😥

[@pennyfields8639]

Brass thing with the pierced lid is a bed warmer, you would put warm coals in the brass pan and carry it by the handle to a bed, lift the covers and warm the bed by moving it around on the fitted sheet, between the covers, so the cold bed would be warm when you got in. Something seen quite often in the old days before heated bedrooms, most of the time the big fireplace or cookstove downstairs was the only source of heat for homeowners. Once you got into bed your body would keep the bed halfway warm. I work at a history museum, hope this info helps. Hope Remon is ok and not hurt seriously. Y'all be careful from Kentucky USA.

[@janetfeathers4128]

Praying Remon feels better and heals fast. Thx for sharing. Great explore!

[@BodyworkByJon]

Just want to let you know that those NeckGator masks you're wearing are not effective. With the black mold, you really need the N95 mask or something with triple filter.

[@gloriahanes6490]

Agreed, you can develop upper respiratory problems which will stay with you for your entire life and perhaps put you on an oxygen tank when you are older.

[@irisenamorado]

Yes, there many type of invisible mold there. Those abandoned mantions are too dangerous. Please be careful getting in there. Use a full biomedical equipment.

[@lindatimmons3675]

Yes absolutely. Use every bit of caution to protect your health.

Ah, so sorry Raymond, heal quickly. What an outstanding place. Thank you Maureno.

[@janjubinville4406]

I can't help believing there was access to the rest of the attic behind those two red curtains. Coming from either direction, you can see the wooden door frames all the way to the floor, unlike window frames would be. I know you were distracted worrying about Ramon. So glad he's okay. Good job anyway on your first "alone " exploration. I love the places you find. Many thanks.

[@missnonegiven3542]

Just an FYI, when you were exploring the kitchen of this castle you were telling a story about the copper long handled "pan looking" article hanging on the wall; you described it as holding ashes. It is called a bed warmer and true the servants filled it with hot coals from the fireplace and would warm the nobility's beds before they climbed into them. Thank you for the explore and all your explorations. I love them. Sorry to hear about your friend being injured. I hope he is now healed and back exploring.
