Incredible Abandoned 17th Century Castle in France | FULL OF HISTORICAL TREASURES!

𝗦𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲
Even supposing, time has stopped in this castle, the clock is still ticking...
Today, I take you on a tour, back to the 17th century. This marvelous abandoned castle was once the home of an Austrian family. Everything from the past is left behind, including ancient documents, from half a millennium ago. It felt like wandering through a museum.
Today we take a look behind its forgotten walls and go in search of its hidden treasures.

Finally, this long-awaited video will premiere today!
First of all, I want to let you know I feel awful for letting you wait for this long. I did all my efforts to finish this video in time, which obviously worked out well, but because of multiple export errors every time I could not manage to upload the video. It is getting very hard to keep everyone pleased with two videos a week and the current laptop I use to make these videos. Currently, I'm saving money so I can buy a new and better laptop which will make things less complicated. For instance, it took 16 hours to export this video on my laptop. It's a very time-investing part and that's why this video is so delayed and you all had to miss Saturday's upload.
But... there is also good news. This will be the longest video ever on the channel. So make sure to grab enough popcorn as I will be live-chatting with everyone tomorrow at 3 PM CET / 9 AM ET.
On top of that, our Abandoned Spain Series will be launching soon as well.

Take care, much love to you all and thank you for waiting <3
You're all very much appreciated and together we're one Explomo family :)

Don't ever cut them short, your detail is what makes your videos special.

I'm a 60yr old woman, on my son's computer to watch your videos. I LOVE WATCHING YOU GUYS!! I've spent many years working and caring for my family, including a severely developmentally delayed son. We aren't able to travel much, certainly not far away, so I'm traveling and adventuring through you. I enjoy your friendship together, your personalities and the joy you have for life and respect for others. Traveling to Portugal was beautiful (I had no idea the beauty!) and Danny was wonderful answering questions about the culture and customs. I do enjoy learning about other cultures, as the USA is very young and anything 100yrs old here we call an "antique"! We do not have buildings and craftsmanship anything like what you show us. Keep up the good work boys!

Those boxes and boxes of letters and documents should be turned over to a historical library so they can be read and documented for history. I would love to know about what they contain. I would love to watch a documentary about it.

You did an excellent job filming this house! Don’t make them short! Keep making them long because it really helps show every detail! Glad I found your channel!

[ramonasalameh]

Oh Maureno, please don´t ever rush through the places and continue to show us all the details and little things. I enjoy your explores very much.

The machine you described, the one with the large round rollers is not used to dry clothing, or to wring water from clothing. It is called a "mangle". It is used to iron sheets, pillow cases, table cloths, and the occasional shirt. I am 80 years old and I remember the maids using them. The bed linen and the table linen were always pressed. You will not find them in the common house, but in the larger mansion, castle, or chateau. I don't like to act like a know it all, but I do remember the mangle being used.
I love the videos, and the exploration you bring. I don't get out much, and you are great company for me.

The fact that letters and documents which are that old survived and are in semi decent condition is MIND blowing to me. Who knows how many older document there were!? Great video!

[majorromance-mjr.garrymatt]

No one in their right mind would ever want you to skip through the many items you present, anyone that got bored would never appreciate the many items there is to look at. I love old things and have collected many items in my 70 plus years. I enjoy the places you take me to, they remind me of my childhood. It brightens up my heart to see young people taking an interest in History and the study of how other people lived. I only wished I had enough money to save each of the places you and others have shown. I did not expect to see so much survive the wars, and it is a struggle to save what we can so that in another 200 years or more others can see and appreciate the fine things that made so many people happy.

Just came across your video today. My wife and I watched it in its entirety and it was amazing. Being American, we do not see things anywhere near this old in our country. To watch you go slowly step by step through this literal museum of treasures of the past is better than anything on tv nowadays. Keep up the awesome videos!!

When you reach the attic level you can see a structural detail that used to be common in the 18th century and even the early 19th. Thomas Jefferson used the technique at Monticello. It's called brick nogging - shallow arches between timber joists. the top of the bricks can be filled with either mortar or sand and the floor surface is, apparently, tile in this case. But wood could be used as well. . . It must make for a more fireproof and sound proof floor. The rest of the floors throughout the house are probably built the same way. When you walked around, my guess is the floors didn't squeak or vibrate. In the 19th century when Iron was much easier to produce in large amounts, the brick nogging would span between iron beans.. .

12:40 coming from a german viewer - the letter wasn't by a friend, it was from a german porcelain shop owner directed to the owner of the castle who seemed to have bought something. she said that she's sorry because something that he bought was broken so she sent him the refund. by the way the shop still exists to this day like wow! it's near nuremberg.

I wish they would turn it into a museum. such a waste to let it all just crumble away

[ladyjane]

If you needed 30 hours to make this video the way that you wanted it to be, I would watch every minute of it. You have such a grace about you, such a presence in how you narrate and yet you are so respectful and gentle as you explore. Be well and live well.

[HillaryHibbard]

I love the respect and reverence you give to the memories and people who once lived there! Your pace, your words, your music are perfect!

[jennifermcdonald]

Omg, I can’t understand how anyone could just leave all that valuable, beautiful and perishable stuff unprotected. I’m also amazed that it hasn’t been looted. I completely understand how people could be in a position where they are unable to afford to continue living in this beautiful place, but surely, if that was the case the first thing you would do is either sell or donate all those incredible things, so they didn’t just rot away. Alternatively, people could come in and steal all that valuable stuff. I mean it’s worth a mint, it breaks my heart.

[danielconverse]

The detail that you provide is astonishingly beautiful. Please, do not cut the videos shorter. If anything, go into more detail if you can. There is a very surreal feeling I have after watching and it is almost as if I have been dreaming. That feeling that leaves one with a desire to get back to the dream that has just ended. It is difficult to explain but it is as if I were there and which leaves me with a sense of wanting to return to a better time that is so long ago and lost.

[merrilday]

he Decay Bros had already done a video on this Chateau about a week before. I find your videoing much better. You look into a lot of things and have a good look not just skim over it. There was rooms I hadn't seen before. Your video's are more detailed. Keep up the good work.

[neverforget]

I am totally gobsmacked by the beauty of the portraits, the letters dating back to 16th century etc. My husband and I were blown away by the fact that its just left for time to swollen up. These fine paintings, artifacts all need to be loving restored and put on display in a museum somewhere, everyone can then enjoy their beauty and history. Thank you for showing us, and the detail you go into to make it more exciting 👍 take care and stay safe.

[Hellamai]

The piece of art, as you described it, over the 1st fireplace is an elaborate door lock to something. The keyhole is in the middle, and the key is hanging in the upper left of the elaborate locking mechanism. From all of the early period mechanical objects you pointed out throughout the castle showed that a previous owner had a keen interest in such objects. Great video! Well done!
