The Chateau's Hidden Past: Uncovering Secrets from Old Magazines I just Found.
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 12 июл 2024
- In today's video, I'll start by sharing with you some extraordinary old magazines I found, which feature my chateau in its days of glory. These magazines are not just paper and ink; they're windows into a bygone era, filled with stories and images that bring the chateau's vibrant history to life.
A Comparative Exploration: Next, I'll take you through the chateau, room by room. We'll compare the lively and elegant scenes captured in these old photographs with the reality of today. As we walk through the now empty halls and rooms, you'll see the stark contrast and feel the echoes of the past, setting the stage for the restoration journey ahead.
Before the Revival: This video is a heartfelt look at the chateau's past and its potential future. I'm standing at the beginning of a massive restoration project, and I invite you to witness the transformation as I bring this sleeping beauty back to life.
Thank you for joining me on this adventure. Your support and interest mean the world to me and this grand old chateau.

What a treasure to have found those magazines! You must feel so happy to be enabled to restore your wonderful chateau as accurately as possible. Thanks for sharing your journey with us!
The magazine, Country Life, has been a fixture on the other side of the channel for decades. I wonder if Vie à la Campagne was modeled on the British magazine.
How sad that it was so destroyed, but those magazines are a great blueprint! Providence is with you! ❤️
It seems immoral to strip the beauty from a building. Not only does it ensure the value drops, it ensures people won't care as much about it. I'm glad you have come along and DO care! Like you, it will stand tall and beautiful again!
What a great find the magazines were. This is a labor of passion to restore as much as possible.
For as long as you have this chateau, there will be countless discoveries. Enjoy all of them . . . Thanks for all of your hard work.
Dear mister Anton, Congratulations on the discovery of the magazines and books. You can make a copy of the paintings and sculptures you like, and publish where the originals are at the bottom of the painting. Kisses from Barcelona❤
Every scrap you can find is a treasure in your discovery
Wow! Those wood floors that were in the salon were amazing! I can't believe they actually chiseled out the stone keystone in the entryway arch.
It's phenomenal that you found these photos, but it must also be heartbreaking that the house no longer has all the original features. I look forward to your journey to renovate and restore what you can.
Wow! Beautiful furniture in those magazines!
A bittersweet video that brings out strong emotions of sadness for the stripping of such beautiful and valuable furnishings and hardware but also the sheer joy and bonne chance of having so many extraordinary photos documenting the original architectural features, period furniture and artwork. It is a long and difficult task to take on the restoration but I'm sure you will find it to be a very rewarding adventure and a great source of pride personally as well as a monumentally important gift to the national heritage of France.
Tremendous undertaking but your efforts will yield a marvelous result.
Amazing! You are extremely fortunate to have access to the magazines and catalog. Looking forward to watching your progress…Good Luck!!!
If only more of the world could be coherent, logical and restored to beauty. Your project is a talisman of hope for the future.
That is a lot of pressure to put on one project, one man.
I am happy with présure 😂😊
Sad that everything was stripped away and sold. Finding those magazines give a glimpse into the past ❤
Thank you so much for sharing this with us, it is so interesting to see the actual pictures of how the chateau used to be. It’s heartbreaking that everything was sold, although I know you will do it justice with the beautiful way you will restore it.

What a great resource to have found! We trust that you will do an amazing job restoring the interiors and bringing some sense of harmony and balance to the chateau! C'est tellement triste de voir comment un patrimoine peut être dilapidé par des gens sans scrupules ou par des circonstances malheureuses. Mais quelle chance que ce chateau vous ait trouvé!!
What a great find. Having photos of the original castle interior and gardens is amazing, and will serve you well as you progress to restore as many original features as possible.
Anton
What a great find. Love love the history lesson.
James
very important to find those magazines indeed!
Enjoyed it?. Loved it! Such joy to find photos from before it was all sold off. The happy results of your ongoing research .good luck with everything. The chateau could not be in better hands
i'm sure you will put as much back as possible
Hello, this video is excellent. It is great that you have the ‘road maps’ from the auction catalogue and the two magazines. Having pictures of the wood paneling is important as is the furniture and art. What was the subject matter of the very large paintings? I would love to know. This is a very exciting journey that you are taking us on, as for those of us who appreciate the history and quality of the work in the past, now get to see it coming to life once again. Thank you so much. Mrs. Gibson, from Uzès
Such a great find, provenance means so much when renovating. Can’t wait to see what is in store for 2024. Happy New Year’s to you and yours.
How lucky to have found the magazines. Here's hoping 2024 is a great year for the Chateau:)
Love your tours. You are so competent, well informed, and thorough. Thanks.
What a shame that so much was stripped! It is wonderful that you have the magazines as references.
Very cool you were able to find those pictures! Love your watch by the way! Cheers Kirk
Thank you for taking the care & time to show as it used to be. Very interesting. A Happy New Year x
Very interesting. Thank you for sharing.
How fun to have old pictures of your chateau! It's so sad that so much was lost but it's almost like you have a time machine in those magazines and catalogs. One of my favorite shows was called "If Walls Could Talk". It was set in the USA and talked about old houses (Much younger houses than in Europe, of corse)and the artifacts and things the current owners had discovered about their history. It was so fun.
That’s very exciting to have found the magazines and auction catalog. I’m looking forward to seeing you recapture the way it used to be and hope by some stroke of luck that you’ll be able to locate some of the original objects and paneling. Happy New Year to you and your family!
how fortunate to have those pictures!! I love watching the progress - your attention to accuracy is wonderful
Absolutely stunning! I look forward to seeing your transformation on the chateau ❤
Those magazines were like traveling back in time, getting to see it as it was vs now While not everything can be brought back exactly, nor does it need to be, as it is your home, it would be fantastic to restore that music room with the balcony and the gorgeous bathroom. Good luck. I am looking forward to the restoration.
What an incredible find! It was so interesting to see it in all its glory, but I can’t wait to see how you bring it all together for today’s needs. It is such a tragedy that everything was sold to the bare bones, but that magazine will be invaluable to help you put it back together. Thank you so much for sharing all this with us.
Wow! You are fortunate to have discovered the publications in order to document and assist with the restoration. That's exciting. I think that calls for a bottle of chilled blanquette! 🍾
How lucky to have found these treasures!
Awesome research report the beauty shines
Fantastic tour. I am glad to see the property in such good hands. Thank you so much for sharing your journey.
It's fabulous you have some photographic history! But a shame it was all sold off. I hope you're able to get some of it back at some time.
I don't know if I could look at the catalog of all the stuff that had been sold off. It would make me sad to not be able to get it all back! I look forward to see how the chateau is restored! Thanks for sharing!
I can not believe how different the interiors look now, compared to the original interiors. What a shame that the castles interior beauty was basically destroyed. I think it would look fabulous to put fake doors back in the room rather than windows.
It is wonderful you have such excellent documentation. Such a lovely Chateau.
how sad that everything was sold, but it is still an elegant and beautiful house and you will have fun making it a home again
Je suis brésilienne et pour moi, c'est un rêve impossible de vivre dans un château comme celui-ci. Félicitations pour la splendide rénovation
Quelle chance d’avoir trouvé ces brochures et ce catalogue mais quelle tristesse de constater le désastre causé par l’appât du gain .
Je suis sûre que vous allez redonner vie à ce chateau avec votre personnalité même sans Oudry !! 2024 sera une année très riche en projets . Je vous la souhaite donc la meilleure possible pour les réaliser.
the constant “uhhmm” “eemmmm” “eehhh” is soo doctor-esque 😅😂
The amazing journey continues.....🥂
How interresting, and what a gift to found this. It is a good guide for you to help you to discover and to realize you plans about the castle.Very good!
And for you Antoni a happy and healthy good New Year!! And a lot off good idears for your Castle.
Lourens.
I did enjoy your video very much. All of that Documentation in those
Magazines you found is fantastic. I can see where they can be very helpful.
There is more good coming. Congratulations.
Jeff❤
What a wonderful discovery, these old magazines! Recently I watched a docu about the construction of La Sagrada Familia on ARTE TV. They used 3D technique to be able to visualize the workshop of Gaudi from old photographs in order to understand his models and plans, since they got lost in a fire. Maybe you could use that technique with these photos as well for the restauration of the lost interiors of your chateau. Wishing you all the best for your plans in 2024!
Desde Argentina 🇦🇷... Cada vez qué te veo en vídeo me emocionó y maravillo... Gracias por mostrar.
How fortunate to have that magazine and auction book. Looking forward to seeing how you restore your chateau. Thanks for sharing and wishing you and your family a happy, joyful and prosperous new year 🎆🎉😍😘
Joyeux Noel Antoni, what a treasure those magazines are. They are going to really help you restore your Castle. I love the catalog, that shows exactly what was sold at auction, you get to see what the castle was furnished with. This was so exciting to see, thanks for sharing. "Bonne Annee" Love from N.Y.
Es una verdadera fantasía poder ver las fotos para ver como era originalmente la casa! Me ha encantado 🤗
How horrible to have stripped out all those beautiful features throughout the chateau. Good luck with the restoration.
Mi piange il cuore vedere dalle riviste, il brutale cambiamento degli interni.
Non capisco perché tutto, deve cambiare sempre in peggio e mai in meglio.
Posso capire che i mobili siano stati venduti ma le boiserie, le decorazioni murarie lasciatele così come sono !!!
Solo l'essere umano è capace di tale accaparramento. 😮
Tanto contenta di vedere Lei, anima nobile e perseverante.
La stimo moltissimo ❤
How wonderful that you found those magazines showing the interiors! Agree you don't have to do an exact replica, but it's great to see how it used to look. I hope you have good luck sourcing some similar items. What a shame places like this get stripped of everything that made them so beautiful. Thank you for the update! Happy New Year and I look forward to your next video 🎉🎉🎉
Thank you for sharing
Beaucoup de travail devant vous pour restituer l'état initial. Bon courage et meilleurs vœux.
Fantastic 👏👏❤️ Thank you for showing us this emens project you are undertaking!! It will be exciting to watch you progress with this dream!! Tons of luck 😅 ❣️🙏🥰
How wonderful to have found this reference that you can compare the current layout with the original. (Also, you English is absolutely charming, however, we don’t say “furnitures” for the plural of furniture😊) ❤
J'adore l'histoire que vous partagez. On vous sent passionné et c'est tant mieux pour les lieux et les rénovations à venir. Au plaisir de voir la suite. Bon courage !
Waouh ! Ce catalogue est un trésor ! C’est comme avoir le mode d’emploi de ce superbe château 👍🏻
Je vous souhaite d’obtenir les fonds nécessaires à cette énorme restauration.
Passez d’excellentes fête de fin d’année et à l’année prochaine !
🌸✨🌸✨🌸
I thoroughly enjoyed this, thank you for sharing! 🏰💖
Happy new year! Looking forward what’s next year brings.
Awesome
Mucho trabajo pero veo que tienes ganas de ponerlo bien lo mas parecido al original suerte y paciencia eres joven tendrás tiempo de verlo terminado y de disfrutarlo
Essas revistas são verdadeiros tesouros com os quais vc poderá guiar sua reforma neste lindo castelo! Poderá reconstituir cada detalhe!Parabéns pelo precioso achado!
That is amazing ❤❤
What an amazing find. Incredible!! That will make it so much easier when restoring. Thank you so much for sharing this with us. It looks like the gardens were very formal.
What a great find were those magazines with the photos of the chateau in its days before the furniture and interior decorations were sold. How fortunate you were.
