sometimes the old fashioned way is the best way. Applying paint stripper to those old hinges and cleaning them really well, then apply DW40 or some other lubricant, then a punch and hammer should do the trick. Time consuming but effective

I think you don't imagine the cost of maintaining the historical places in France, they are so many... The french government and the french people try to do their best! Your criticism toward them is unfair. AND, i think if an army of french rich men came in UK to buy the castles, I am not sure your reaction will be the same... IN my opinion the french people tolerate pretty well the british buying houses in france. And they are numerous to do it. ( from a french in burgundy)

And no they’re not trust funded people, they’re hardworking and actually want something meaningful in their lives and God has blessed them along the way! So stop being a salty bitter person and get off your arse and actually do something worthwhile! No matter how they manage, they’re living the life they dreamt about in a castle....what kind of life are you living🤔

@julieautheatre 3 жыл бұрын

There are at least 45 thousand Chateaux in France, so it seems obvious that the government is not able to look after all of them, due to funding, the management it would require... it simply isn't the role of the state to take care of every single Chateau. They maintain the most important ones (like Versailles, Chenonceau, Fontainebleau...) and as a French person, I am very grateful for that much :) Also, as pretty as the Chateaux are in this show, they are of little historic significance therefore of little interest to the French State ! While I find it unfortunate that French people don't rise up to the task of taking care of our beautiful heritage, I am happy foreigners do so in our place :D

@@DavidJohnson-dc8lu that's wildly under the number. You have to consider what qualifies as a castle. France truly has thousands and thousands of buildings with at least one tower that used to belong to fortifications. Some of it is due to Franco-British wars actually. Apart from having abolished aristocracy, there is the fact that there is a limit to how much heritage a country can sponsor (we don't have a National Trust). On top of castles there are churches, monasteries, villas and gardens, palaces, industrial heritage, gallo-roman heritage, prehistoric art, etc. Honestly if anything we are too protectionists, we like to mummify our cities - see the restoration of Notre Dame.
