    O wow,I am so impressed. The lady is so lovely and humble. She has great self control, but I can hear the emotion in her voice. Understandable. The chateau is extraordinary. Huge space indeed. People like saying words with certain intonation about such families with chateau,castles...but I doubt that the majority of them have a realistic idea,what enormous responsibility it is really. And pride of course, but they pay the price one way or another. I love the techniques the resorator was using. So interesting. Touching delicately and revealing original colours. So exciting. All is impressive inside and outside. So much history, the stories..you can almost smell it how it was in the past. I would love to visit this chateau should I have the opportunity. It would be truly special experience. Thank you for this great episode 👍 RIP Madame Mini de Beauvau- Craon.

    Victoria, hi from Russia. It's a great pleasure, that some of the family castles/chateaus are in such great condition. And a great pleasure that You do share a family history with KZread viewers. Hope, You know the meaning of the few coats of arms that You showed. And called them as "family symbols". According to the coats of arms, You and me are far-far-far relatives. Also, You should know to have wide range of relatives in few special locations in Europe. With the same coats of arms. And not only in France. Some of them keeps studying the family history and shows it to the public. As do I. And You. If You want an additional compliment, Your chateau/mansion/palace looks litle bit gloomy for me, but for sure is one of the most attractive in architectural point of view among the family estate. God knows why, but architectural design and taste was not among the main achievements of the family, as I know ;) So, good luck in keeping this masterpiece. And in development and maintaining. You're great! Bon chance!

    All of those pieces of tissue on the wall is actually how they clean it, it is so fascinating and painstakingly done. I’m wondering if her German Shepherd is a little older because he does exactly what mine does, lays down immediately when we get into a new room, just can’t stand for long anymore. Although he may just be exhausted walking around somethings so huge.

Except I do believe German shepherds are part human. 😉 It’s funny when you have an older dog you notice those things. Mine is nine years old now and that’s the age that starts making me sad because I know what’s to come even though I should be cherishing every moment which I am.

The important thing is this, which I wanted to see in the high-ceilinged rooms of a real palace and the old furniture. Preserving everything as it was in the rooms. Also, I do not want to see the restoration of the palaces, but some sing it in the modern style. From the inside, but this is what we want to see how the palaces and life in ancient times were really, very beautiful and wonderful👍👏🌷
