      Which life ? Who wants to live in a castle apparts from people who never experienced it and imagine that it is great. Living in a castle is very impractical. Even if you run it as a hotel/historical monument/event location competiting with other castle will be a real challenge. There is a reason why this castle is for sale: It is crap (Compare to the ton of other castle available in France)

    There's a lot of misinformation in this video. This is Chateau Le Bouilh, and it was built in 1787 for Jean-Frederic, the Comte de Paulin. It was not built for the king, and Duchesse du Barry did not hide here during the revolution. The chateau was never completed, construction was halted with the outbreak of the revolution. The Comte's daughter-in-law was Lucie de la Tour du Pin, the famous memoirist, who along with her husband and children sought refuge here before escaping to America during the revolution. The couple later returned and lived here again for a short time during Napoleon's reign. The chateau remains pretty much as it did at the start of the revolution, only half-completed.

      Mary Clingman would need to see that tub in person to decide but I don’t believe they made tubs that big in the 20th century. Now the outside of the tub was painted the same as the wall and that was done ALOT in the US during the late 20s and 30s to spiff up older or damaged tubs. The French had their own monetary issues during that time so my guess would be the tub was much older and when plumbing was updated the tub got a coat of paint. That tub was either new old stock lol or an very old tub. The other fixtures are 20s most likely because by the time of financial recovery France was recovering from WWII

      ​@@jorgegomez524 Hi . . I've just come across this site again and saw your unanswered question! Yes, Lucie and her husband Frederic loved Le Bouilh but they mostly lived at Versailles where she was a lady-in-waiting to Marie Antoinette and her father in law was the Minister of war. They returned to Le Bouilh after the elder Comte was guillotined but found the chateau sealed and the furniture plundered . Frederic remained in hiding on the property (with a loyal staffer) while Lucie, the children and their nanny etc lived in Bordeaux and arranged their voyage to North America. When the family returned to France, Lucie was invited to join the court of Napoleon and the Comte de Gouvernet became a diplomat. They later settled in Italy and never returned to Le Bouilh and the chateau passed to a different branch of the family.

      I'm pretty sure there are many hidden treasures there... We only scratched the surface during this fast filming session, many parts were not filmed but we went all the way from the amazing vaulted basement to the superb attic, or in the Chapel (not featured here but stunning) and in many other parts (we wanted to keep the film short enough) and it's just mindblowing to discover letters written by some of the most famous people from that period.

    Well worth the price, just to have a reason for routinely saying 'Gironde' (and also the magical words 'Aquitaine' and 'Dordogne' - all three being joyful words to say). And then there's the delightful 'Folie de Grandeur' dollhouse scale of the chateau, which would make it highly manageable to own.

    The WALLPAPER or Painting below the Chair Railing on the 2nd Floor in the Hallway reflects its ancient age....so stunning and rare design..appears to be late 1700 to early 1800's! Many of the ceilings are peeling and have flaked off onto the floor in several of the 1st rooms, such as the 1s Blue Room there is a stripe of WALLPAPER hanging loose. Sure would like to know the last time someone spent the night!? Let's hope the furniture, paintings and accessories STAY in the Chataue FOREVER.

      Look again...the large tables are very dusty just layers, they don't shine. On the Grand Staircase is white/gray stains on the steps from bird droppings sitting on the large paintings. Look at the huge painting again as he comes down the steps....the bird droppings are more noticeable at the bottom of the frame from where the birds sat. So sad! Probably a broken window for awhile before care taker noticed. Wonder WHY not cleaned and dusted before placed for sale? Did owner die and the Trustee - Executor thinks that it shows its age (unchanged 1789) better if dirty? Wish they explained when it was last lived in from day to day. Probably was a Country Home in the last 100 years.....

      Don't let your heart be bogged down by this. Nothing is permanent. Sure it's an historic treasure, but remember it rose on the backs of extremely oppressed people, whom the French aristocracy didn't regard as citizens, built just 3 years before the Revolution (1786?). The planet is filled with ruins and we simply can't save them all. If fate has force, then fate determines what should and will happen to this property. Get some friends and family together and find a project to save and that will be more satisfying than anything else you do.
