This particular castle has been sold to a new owner who is currently renovating the premises. If you by any chance know the location of the castle please don't try to enter it because this is punishable under French law with a fine of 15000 Euro and or one year of imprisonment. The castle is NOT abandoned anymore!
Exploring abandoned places is my hobby and finance it all out of my own pocket and the donations I get from the people who love watching the documentaries we make... A small donation would be greatly appreciated! ► / brosofdecay
Documenting historic abandoned treasures is not for the faint of heart, reaching this particular place took us on a journey through a dense forest in the south of France, a journey of multiple hours through difficult to navigate terrain, this combined with no way of telling in which part of the forest we found ourselves made it a very challenging endeavor.
Eventually, we made our way out of the forest and we were rewarded with the first glips of lost beauty, a fairytale-like castle build for a rich French family just post World War One.
The family had a long-lasting history in the noble sport of Horse racing and build this place in dedication to the sport. Many prestigious horse racing events have take place on the ground of the castle in the last century, but every great story has its ending, the family got into financial trouble and had to sell the castle. When the castle got sold it got a new life and was transformed into a reputable hotel.
This was however until the year 2003 when for no apparent reason everything got left behind and nobody seemed to care about this historic beauty anymore.
Now almost 2 decades later the castle still remains in its desolated state and is slowly withering away.
Our journey today will take us inside the walls of this once magical place and we will show you it’s forgotten remains.

NOT abandoned someone with big bucks owns & is renovating. They can afford to sue the crap out of these guys. These illegal videos are the only way most people will ever get to see such amazing places. It’s so dangerous if they get caught they could get beat or shot. They can get sued at any moment because they expose these places to looters & vandals. Especially cause they always have those backpacks could be accused of stealing souvenirs. I like watching but I am concerned for these guys sneaking in.

I don't think so Kara. I think these people had planned to take their best stuff with them but the creditors were nearly onto them and they had to do a moonlight flit. The ownership is probably tied up in an incredibly complicated way which is preventing a sale to new owners. Navigating French property sales is time-consuming and complicated even for ordinary property, who knows what this one is like

The "crest" that you keep seeing in all of these castles is the Fleur De Lis / Fleur De Lys - French Monarchs adopted the symbol (it actually dates back to at least 7th century B.C. - so no one actually knows it's original meaning). Hopefully the new owners appreciate the antiques and the architecture - even with all the mold they have to contend with! This was beautiful, thank you for sharing it.

Thank you for another great explore! It's a shame to see such a beautiful building slowly falling into wreck & ruin. Here are a few notes FYI: (1) I’m not 100% certain but I think the room beside the grand salon was originally the dining room and that the built-in cabinetry was used to display the house’s dinner service & flatware. (2) The round seat in the middle of that room is called a “borne settee” and is derived from the two-seat “tête-à-tête” or “indiscret” (adding a third seat is called a “chaperone chair” and collectively they’re known as “conversation chairs”). (3) In the entrance hall, the chest of drawers you describe as gold-plated looks like a reproduction with what’s called Boulle marquetry that employs tortoiseshell inlaid primarily with brass or pewter (If it was original-17/18th century-it would be in a museum or a grand stately home or castle and worth many 100s of thousands of euros). (4) The director’s chair in the grand salon is a Roman design called a “curule seat” that was reserved for imperium; in Europe, symbolically it denotes power & authority. Original designs folded so as to be carried into battle. While this x-shaped chair design was found in ancient Egypt, Rome & Greece it has been used throughout the centuries and has many different names: often, when it has a back, it is called a “Savonarola chair” (5) It’s difficult to tell whether the piano is 6’ or 8’ but it’s tragic to see a beautiful piano in such poor condition; I’d say it’s mid-to-late 19th century and in restored condition would be worth at least €10,000 and poss. as much as €30,000. (6) The “crest’ on the floor tiles & on the iron fire-plate is called a “fleur-de-lys” (lily flower) and has been used in European heraldry for centuries, though it is most often associated with the royal and/or the noble houses (those connected to royalty) of France. While there are many stunning, genuine antiques left in this chateau, there is also some reproductions and 20th-century furniture, in particular, the Chinoiserie pieces and the white & gold ‘baroque’ bedroom suite.

Heyy my dear friend Lesley, That was an absolutely epic castle tour! I enjoyed watching every second of your wonderfully made Urbex video. - Also your choice for the background music was a pure delight to listen. Your excitement was even quite infectious, when you were entering the castle to take us viewers at your side on tour through the mostly still quite well preserved rooms. - I especially loved the big but still cozy looking living room with the grand wing piano and the chandelier. But I agree to you, the chandelier in the entrance hall was indeed absolutely breathtaking, because of its enormous size and how beautifully it is designed. - In some rooms there was very elaborately designed and decorated furniture visible, presumably mostly from the end of the 19th century, the period of the so called "historism". - For instance these chairs, which are looking so medieval, I would describe as medieval revival, - also from the late 19th century. - Wonderful to see were these cabinets and secretary desks with the intricate inlay works and the chinoisery deco or Japan deco, which was also very popular in the late 19th century, and very often showing the imagination of the artists, how items from these far east countries might look. Of course I am not excluding the import of authentic furniture from the far east, but because China and Japan were fascinating the mostly rich owners of such castles, they wanted to realize their phantasy and longing for the mystic and fascinating Far East. Thank you dear bro, for sharing this exceptional castle Urbex tour with us viewers. It's only a pity, that such a location is just left to deteriorate slowly away, which makes me actually quite sad, because treasures of great art historical value are going to be left to waste forever! Stay safe, my friend, and take care. Wishing you a very blessed Advent season and a lot of fun together with Maureno on your grand tour. - Many hugs, peace, blessings and kindest regards from quite cold and wintery Switzerland.

I was going to say, That one bathroom you showed us had updated things like the tub shower and also the round shower in that tower. I would have gotten out of there just knowing that. Glad someone is restoring the place

Absolutely fabulous detail in every single room and the furniture. I just don’t understand why people don’t come in to save these antique furniture pieces and other items to give them an extended life instead of rotting away 😞

I ran across your channel about castles and was curious to see them. When I was young I heard my dad talking about receiving a letter from the Gard family in France asking if we would be interested in the castle. I’ve always wondered about it as he said we couldn’t go there. It would have been awesome! Thank you for your adventurous tours they are amazing!!

This is an extraordinary explore. It's so sad, all of the beautiful antics just left behind. This place could be a great holiday getaway. I think people would like to stay here. But what happened to the former owners. Horse racing is a very risky business, and maybe they went under. Thank you Lesley for this beautiful documentary. Merry Christmas to you and yours. Bless you

Why didn't they sell the antiques or the entire castle? It's strange that it's abandoned with so much value there.
@lissanne9769 2 жыл бұрын
@@s.r.r. Your right. Maybe the owners tried to sell some of the beautiful furniture but couldn't get it out of the door. I thought it very odd that there was a lot of valuable dressers, room dividers, a bedroom set, and more piled up at one of the doors. Almost as if waiting for a moving truck to pick it up. But the truck never came. It's all so strange.

The architecture and the ceilings are stunning with all of the antiques oh my gosh. I’m wondering if the rim with the round SETI The wall that had all the sections in it I wonder if that held all of their trophies. The chandelier around the staircase is enormous. I have never seen one so large

Thank you so much for this truly amazing video. Your narration of this fabulous castle was very respectful, also you show such respect and appreciation for the very huge range of very valuable antiques. It must have broken their heart to leave their home and leave everything they had created behind . Glad someone has bought it and of course renovate the castle hopefully a hotel so everyone can enjoy it.😃🇦🇺
