He Lost Everything! ~ Unreal Abandoned Castle With Everything Left

[@dianeknight4839]

The first room you entered was what is called a long gallery. The walls would have been lined with portraits. It would also have been a reception room for the guests. The main kitchen in the 1800s would have been in the basement. The family probably turned another room into a small kitchen for the modern day family. You will probably find most of the valuable antiques were sold to pay nursing home fees. So sad to see a lovely building rot like this.

[@marywegrzyn506]

Wow!!! Thank you for all the important and interesting knowledge. I love learning about life back in the past and how life would hav been lived. Thank you!

[@christopherkent3458]

thank you,was saying the same thing as i watched the tour. wish the host knew something about architecture,though the gist of the show does satisfy the viewers need to roam around an empty abandoned house

[@celiareginarogero8815]

Hey Lesley! Congratulations on your eight years of explorations, work and dedication, Always with good music, excellent narration and interesting stories.

[@darkcoco4542]

I’m so glad that I stumbled upon your channel. There’s so much ugliness in the world, so finding your channel where you show love and respect to these abandoned properties and their families brings me joy and a little bit of sadness.

[@rebeccawoods5119]

That long room at the front of the house was probably used as an enclosed porch with out door style furniture where they could enjoy the fresh air coming through the open windows.It's sad that it's falling apart like that and caught fire when it did.Everytime I hear of someone loosing their home to fire it makes me feel so sad for the family that lived there.Thanks for sharing this once beautiful place for all to see.I love how respectful you are with these places, you are a very wonderful caring person.Hope you are all still having fun here in America and as always, we love you too guys.

[@TheMtggrl]

Leslie, my goodness you should be a writer with the creative way that you describe how the people may have lived in these abandoned homes, you truly paint a great picture of their lives. Thanks for another awesome explore.

[@marywegrzyn506]

I totally agree !!!

[@lindavanschalkwyk8175]

Hi Lesley, I love your channel. I truly appreciate the respect you show towards these old buildings and the people who lived there during your explorations. I love the respect, empathy, passion and care you have for these old abandoned properties. Keep going, I am passionate about everything "old" as well as the way the people live. Wishing you all the best with future endeavours. From South Africa

[@donalddickson3333]

I love exploring the abandoned places you visit. They're totally awesome, and a very unique way of looking into the past.

[@nicholasfryee7867]

Hello Lesley, looking forward to this video, they are interesting I love your voice on these videos relaxing and helps me to sleep 😊❤

Once again I salute the Bros of Decay. I have spent many a lockdown day and night watching and listening.

[@willyegger4488]

Heyy dear Lesley, I am always so amazed, how often you were able to find so fascinating locations in France. Also this mansion had a few wonderful rooms with still some pieces of very nice and antique furniture from probably the end of the 19th century. I agree to you, that the craftmanship on some of the cabinets is indeed very beautiful to see. Your experience of already eight years exploring shows off every time you upload a new video! - One of your outstanding talents after my opinion is the way, how you are giving somehow a new life with your comment to this for a long time abandoned mansion only through your very sensitive approach to the imagineable life of the former owners of that location. I am every time, when watching your videos, amazed and deeply touched again. - And - I love so much seeing you sometimes so excited and emotionally moved, when you are finding something remarkable! Wishing you all the best, dear bro, - and I am already looking very much forward to your next Urbex adventure! - God bless you all! Wishing you still a very successful continuation of your grand trip in the USA. - Stay safe, much love, peace and kindest regards.

[@elizabethorellana3260]

What a beautiful castle, it is a pity that they are in ruins, there are still beautiful furniture, its tapestries, its spaces with great luxury from that time, thanks for such a great job, greetings from CA

[@jayebirdjb7143]

I think it’s kinda hard to imagine how many of these abandoned structures so, plentiful. Your production are high quality 👍

Hi Ann Smith, Greetings from sunny Switzerland. Wishing you all the best and kindest regards.

[@loveamore]

@@willyegger4488 it's never sunny in Switzerland 🙄

[@willyegger4488]

@@loveamore , Hahaha, very funny, we have since more than two weeks continuosly bright and sunny weather. It is even now so warm and dry, that there were fires in the woods of the southern part in Switzerland, because it has not rained for weeks. - That's the current weather situation in my home country. By the way where are you living, - and is it right now also so unusally dry there? Wishing you a blessed Sunday evening, peace and kindest regards.

Hi, I always love hearing your voice. You are very good and kind soul. You really have a big heart and truly care about people of the past and their homes and lives. I am in America and wish I could hug you and shake your hand. Thank you for being you and doing what you do. You make the world a better place. God Bless you and keep you safe on your journey of life.

[@kelleennordquist5697]

Thank you so much for your content...my favorite parts of these abandoned homes, is the lighting. Chandeliers, lamps, etc. They're so unique!

[@marydesch6227]

Hello again Leslie. You are a pure joy to watch and listen to. I’m a true fan.

[@deborahdywilson]

Love your enthusiasm and i too am in awe of the historical significance, and total disregard the descendants had for their family home

[@meimeilu7678]

One more amazing video.. the way you talk about the place you bring life in to abounded places once again with your expression.. I feel that you doing it with full your heart it’s a beautiful work .. respect on your this amazing work !

[@billb5749]

Thank you again Lesley for another beautifully crafted video. The party room in the basement must have been quite the place back in the day! I can't wait till the next adventure.

[@maggiereeves8585]

The orange lamps at the bar and the other hanging on e is straight out of the 1970's. Very popular. Orange and Avocado Green was in every home, we had the green.🙄I am eighty, showing my age, so there's that. I love your video's, Lesley. They are very relaxing for me given the state of the situation these days. 😏

[@dorothysmith3850]

Crown moulding is the trim in the corner where the walls and ceiling meet. The decorative moulding where a chandelier hangs from is called a ceiling medallion.

[@CircleB-ig9mk]

You and Exploring with Josh are my favorites!! Thank you so much for the respect you show the places you explore!!

[@celiareginarogero55]

Hey Lesley! I loved this video so much and I'm looking forward to the t- shirt I buy recently from the channel. I 'll keep it as a beautiful memory of the channel! 🥰🇧🇷

[@wild888flower]

Hello Lesley, a big and warm congratulations on your 8th year of awesome exploration of abandoned places with wonderful mansions, palaces, chateau to name a few. You really put your heart in your endeavors and your respect and carefulness is at par compared to other. Just a piece of motherly advise, please if you can always wear mask and gloves more if you enter those places with molds and dust and whatever virus and bacteria is in there that you might inhale or touch. May God always guide and protect you all your life. Keep those fascinating videos coming. Be safe 🙏🏻🥰👏🏻

[@patrawish874]

Hello Lesley, the architecture is always amazing , oh if they would build houses like this now:) it's huge, I could not believe there are so many rooms. I truly am amazed at these mansions, being fortunate to have lived in a Victorian two story house for a magical year I am treated to a glimpse once again, thank you, stay safe with your family and happy journeys.

[@cincyzoe]

Hi! Another fine explore, thank you. I did want to mention that the basement room with the large fireplace and the bread oven was the original kitchen. It was turned into a disco party room many decades later. 😊❤️

[@ruthbeck2050]

Wonderful place love the blue tile and the furniture that was left. Thank you so much Leslie

[@barryjacobs8524]

Hello Lesley. Your videos are fantastic but I still find a great sadness on finding these once beautiful places with things of value that we will never see again. I wish the stuff could be given away for someone to look after these priceless pieces.

[@renahamilton6712]

I love the way that you show the residence how you explain every single little detail and an h and every room I have looked at many people show different places but you're the top of the cake because of you talk about every little detail of each and every room and if there is a story about the place a little bit of information and I thank you

[@brendasmith5937]

I wish I could visit one of these old mansions with you! So sad that no remaining family claimed this home or property

[@annlyon144]

Just love your videos ! Ive been watching since the beginning ! 💕💕💕💕

[@ramona_rami5643]

That was a really interesting place! I liked the vintage items in the rooms and that bar in the basement! Thank you for the lovely exploration!!!

[@tzok09]

Leslie, your have come so far since you first started. Both as a vlogger and traveler. Congratulations!

[@susannahgingras8546]

I love this tour. You did a great job exploring such a majestic place. I'm from the United States of America, we call items different than you do. I love learning new terms from different places. Great job!!

[@hannahsophievantrampe740]

I love your visits to the old houses. The chairs you saw so many of in the beginning was garden furniture - they where also used here in Denmark. It is very clear that someone made huge changes in the 70th.

[@thissweetlife7250]

I really appreciate how he leaves even the most simple items where he found them. Carefully observing each item and returning it where he found it. He has respect for the castle but also for everything in the castles that once helped it come to life. Also, these videos are great all on their own but without hos wonderful narration with his lovely voice these videos wouldn't be nearly the same quality that they are with his voice.

[@jilldavis7229]

Lovely, large once loved home! Lots of space & lots of bedrooms for children, possibly servants quarters in the attic! I hate wallpaper!!! I realize that all of the old homes had it, but would have sustained sooo much better if they’d have been painted!!! Love these old properties! Thank you for sharing this wonderful adventure with us Leslie! I loved it ❤️👍

[@DanaSalvo]

Love your videos. You always find such gorgeous places, Just don't forget to point out the hardware on the doors such as the knobs, etc. I'd also like to see the detail in the railings of the staircases. I believed they were maybe wrought iron in this episode. Anyway, just little suggestions. Thanks again for the great videos. I always look forward to them. Take care and stay safe. P.S. When are we going to see your videos from the time in my country, the USA? xo

[@sueathomas69]

Congratulations to you and your discovery team! I just started to watch you all about a couple a weeks ago and I am hook, mesmerized by the story's you tell of the families and the mansions themselves! I love it!🌹😁

[@lotusdolphin]

Great explore Leslie! As always. That was an unusual château. I have to say I really liked your hair this week it looks cute like that. More natural. Thanks again love from California 💜🤟🏻🍀😎🇺🇸🇺🇦🕊

[@tadchisholm6509]

I always enjoy your videos. It’s so easy to get lost in the layout of many of these abandoned places. It would be really nice the see a floor plan before or after the exploration. Even if it was a rough drawing of some sorts. To me, it looked like this place might have been divided in to apartments. The other thing is the lack of bathrooms! No tubs or showers visible. Thanks again for exploring these abandoned treasures.

[@vickievans6853]

Our Lesley L❤️VES his Wallpaper doesn’t he? 😁 ( well, not that pink stuff in the Bathroom - imagine walking in there with a hangover 🤢) Really loved this explore thanks heaps Lesley - my fave thing was the old old bicycle with the dog basket attached. 💗☮️🤗🐨🇦🇺

[@pattigolden1]

I love the old homes you explore! Here in the states they would be sadly looted & trashed. That was the strangest wallpaper in the bathroom!! And LOVED the pizza oven! But I must correct you on one thing (yes, I know English is not your first language & adore your accent!!) The thing you always call "crown molding", mostly around chandeliers, is actually a "ceiling rose"... Crown molding is decorative piece along the edges of the ceiling...

[@dorothea5647]

Again a surprising video! thank u very much :x How many doors and rooms does this building has, i am dizzy from it. Would h've love to go to the mini disco's in the basement that time.....Keep filming Lesley, never can get enough :)

Bonjour Lesley, another lovely find that had a lot of history. Thank you for sharing everything.

[@cynthiatomblin5427]

Hi Lesley . So sad it left abandoned and decaying. The castle was beautiful inside and out. Thank you for another great video.stay safe👏👍❤️🥰

[@harmbron1794]

The "Disco Baby" list in the bar is not a price list. It’s a track list of a music album by American artist Van McCoy, released in 1975. The numbers are not prices but the length of the songs in minutes and seconds. This also relates to the dj booth in the other room.

[@rosaescobar6422]

Maravilloso castillo como siempre nos encanta estos lugares, gracias y hasta la próxima 👌🥰😘😘😘

[@alexandria8255]

Great video Leslie, the orange chandelier belongs in that bathroom with the busy flower wall/ceiling paper. LOL 😂😂😂😂

[@barbkeil-burton6894]

Hi Lesley, sad there was a fire, but for the remaining rooms there is some nice furniture, & glasses! Beautiful carved cabinets...that should be saved before roof or floors collapse! Wow, just think that castle stood alone before other homes were built across the street & a road in front! Love the hidden door that matches the wallpaper walls. How strange that pink bathroom is bigger than the kitchen! But love the gold curved plate over the toilet paper! Maybe the clown shoes were house slippers? I love the basement with bar & DJ area for maybe dancing, & the door for the car to park inside! Wow, that`s a lot of wood for the fireplaces & yes I saw the Bat fly by your camera! That`s a old bicycle , a woman`s bicycle! So many rooms in the basement, but yet the 2 rooms with all the wood was not touched by the fire! Wow, lots of bedrooms upstairs, & the attic not much to see! Thanks so much Lesley, for this adventure...it was great to see all the things that is still there & for you to explain in detail of everything!! Love you, stay safe from Illinois USA

[@dmcl1958]

Enjoyed this tour - correction re: "sled" on the attic. It is actually a wooden bed warmer frame. It slipped between blankets and mattress with a heated rock, brick or hot water bottle on the lower wooden platform until it was time to hop into bed. Very toasty!

[@lailahammes4964]

Wall paper has a "toile" painting, very french, usually outdoor scenes. The encavement in the wall for a statue is called a "niche". Always enjoy your videos. I love how the basement was filled with empty wooden crates, beneath where the fire was. I'm surprised that the whole house didn't burn up!

I just stumbled upon your channel. Love it's content, your passion and respect for the places you explore. Thank you for showing us even the smallest in details of the architecture, the antiques and wooden furniture, the stories and marvels of the places you visit. You take us back in time to a place that once was full of life and tell us a fantastic story!!!!!!!

[@thissweetlife7250]

His passion is what keeps me coming back to these videos. That and I myself am so passionate about history...what I would give to be in that castle. Only time and not space would separate me from the castles once bustling corridors and the, no doubt, interesting people that once inhabited it. It is a rather bittersweet thought. I find bittersweet to be a common theme when talking about historical building especially. I am so thankful that the creators of this video decided to bring this masterpeice back to life one more time, almost as if to give it the proper goodbye it deserves, one of appreciation and pride. These videos are quite addicting for the one such as myself who loves history and appreciates how truly magnificent these castles used to be.

[@bettygitzke4131]

It’s so sad to see the beautiful place and what’s become of them. I can just imagine the life that was lived in this place.

[@RobertMadden]

How would someone get in touch with the family to buy and restore this amazing home? I’ve traced my ancestry back to 1066 when both sides of my family left Normandy for England and Ireland, then to North America. MONCEAUX’s and MADDEN’s. You are wonderful at what you do!

[@sonniquickpianoimprov]

Read my entry. I too left some of my family history. It is wonderful having that history. I come from Sir Robert Rich, 2nd Earl of Warwick and Penelope Deveraux, the Queen's neice.. The Earl physically abused his wife and was quite an unpleasant man. But if you hit royal family lines so much is written down which makes it easy to find. This family built the Mayflower and brought the Pilgrims over from Holland. He was given a charter by the king to settle anywhere in the new country. He later settled the town of Warwick, Ma. My mother had the family name - Rich

[@tamarrajames3590]

It is sad the man did not get to live out his life in the home he loved. It was a beautiful mansion, and well appointed. I think the room that was burned was originally a ballroom. The informal dining room was originally part of the kitchen, and the servants would have eaten there as well. Thank you for sharing this wonderful place.🖤🇨🇦

Hello Lesley, The engraving on the wall is interesting : it represents Rouget de Lisle, in1792, performing in Strasbourg , his " war song for the army of the Rhine" which would later become the French National Anthem "La Marseillaise ".Monsieur Roger was a lover of patrotic artwork and your thoughtful footage is a tribute to his memory.
