- 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
The house got abandoned around 2 decades ago. Edward used to live here together with his wife and children. For the first time ever we take you to the country of Switzerland, a country that is landlocked in the middle of Europe, countless stories reside within its borders, and over the next coming weeks, we are going to document a small fraction of them. We start off with the story of Mister Edward and his family, they started living inside this house just after the Second World War ended in Europe. Edward and his wife were madly in love and decided to raise a family and make countless memories inside the walls of the house. Life went by seemingly quickly, the children grew up, went to study and move out, this left Edward and his wife alone again to enjoy their well-deserved retirement,
But unfortunately for Edward things turned south, his wife got sick and passed away early, this left him in deep grief and he had to live out the last years of his life on his own.
Today we will tell the story of Edward and take you on a tour throughout his Wonderfull mansion, get ready for an intriguing adventure.

A lot has changed after I explored this place two years ago. It was mysteriously tidied up, either by some explorers or by the current owner, which is an arabic man. However, the furniture in the living room used to be all over the place, it was a bit cramped, but not because of vandalism. It was actually abandoned like that. The house, as you see it in this video has been like that since it was tidied up by someone last year.
You said Edward was a military man. I must tell you that in Switzerland every citizen must attend military service for a while so you'll find military equipment in pretty much any house here, regardless if they are actually a military person or not. It's something many foreign explorers said when they came to my country to explore untouched places. They often found uniforms and many other military things. It's normal to find basic prepping items in most households here in Switzerland. I always recognize the same items in every abandoned house in my country. It's just a part of the vibe of abandoned places in Switzerland.
You also asked about that door in the basement. Doors with wooden patterns like these are very common for storage rooms in basements in Switzerland, from my experience they were mostly integrated into unused private fallout shelters in the 1960s. (almost every house in Switzerland has a fallout shelter)
These stoves in the living rooms are the most common thing ever here in Switzerland, I've seen a dozen of them in abandoned houses. People love to put things onto them, the steps were also used to sit on them if you need to get warm. They always have the building date on them, that's useful for us explorers.
Looking forward to explore together with you in Switzerland next time!
Interesting. Thank you for the input as I was so impressed by the fact that it appeared abandoned houses in Switzerland are extremely immaculate. I loved catching glimpses of the Delft pottery. The valuable Delft pottery. I have a few pieces but not the very valuable pieces I look to collect. Just a stunning place. Here in the USA this place would have been trashed for sure. Graffiti would have been all over the place. I love the blue and white which seems to be predominate colors in your country. Interesting to be taken on these journey's without ever leaving your house now. Thank you and thank you to Lesley who brings us with him wherever he goes.
Urbex Badger - Do you have a video of the house when you saw it. I would love to see it.
So interesting, thank you!
Edward was a military man.. but not in Switzerland.. he was a Nazi who fled Germany after the war to avoid prosecution for crimes against humanity
@@scotttrades Nah man.
This home is in really good shape considering it's been abandoned for so long. It most definitely was very well made!! Thanks so much for taking us along with you in this absolutely gorgeous home!!
I’m surprised no one squatted in them !
It probably has something to do with the mild cooler weather preserving it.
I think it great place to go
This home is in amazing shape. Why does the family not keep the house? They left his military awards why. I got all my great great grandparents to my mom and dad’s stuff just because it has memory and personal memories.. crazy 😜 happy to see over there they have not trashed and stole everything.. you and your camera man awesome 👏 should come out here to Northern Michigan we have lots of abandoned homes., I love 💕 looking for them.. hehe old home hunting lover. 😘😘😘

Have recently been watching various explorers.....have to say-- you are the best in my eyes. You have such a calm, peaceful respectful manner. You take time and care as you discuss the interesting pieces you come across. You articulate so well...
I'm so impressed....
My only problem is that your voice is so soothing, it has lulled me to sleep on occasion so I end up having to watch an episode twice [I'm not ~really~ complaining though😉]
Bravo on a fantastic exploration!
I agree. His soothing voice has pulled me to sleep at times too. I told a friend if I have trouble falling asleep I should put on one of his videos. But I so enjoy his videos, if I do doze off, I always go back and watch the full video.
Lesley, here your friend Suzy sending good vibes and much love ❤️
Beautiful place!
Thank you for including your viewers in your adventures. I think it is wonderful how respectful you are to the properties you go to. Thank you again, Safe travels.
Hey Lesley! Wow! This room is amazing with beautiful and colored details. This video deserve a million of applause!!!!!!
Wow! It's beautiful as well as it shatters my heart to imagine his last days in this mansion. Memories are left only. Your videos make me feel that I'm exploring the place myself. Such an amazing video. Love you Leslie.
Hi Lesley, loved this visit to a beautiful home in Switzerland. So many antiques and treasures and that old phone was just a gem to see!
Many thanks for all your hard work and good to see work on the van is progressing nicely as well! 🤗👍
Totally enjoyed touring this beautiful place with you! Wonderful! Can't wait for more episodes! 😄🙏👌
Prachtig, ik heb genoten !
Dank je wel dat we mee mochten kijken
In het mooie huis van men. Eduard , hij was een bijzondere man.
Never stop exploring. I pray you will continue to always share your findings... You guys are amazing!
Such an amazing place.Thanks Lesley for this explore! Your videos always impress me. 👍🏻
Lesley…Such beautiful, magical memories you share. A true storyteller with such compassion and respect 🙏🏻💙
Oh I and my brother were using the same wooden equipment during the Winter in Central Europe; the attic looks exactly like my parents and also lots of furniture and ADL objects. Feel very nostalgic....thanks and greetings from Toronto!
I absolutely love your videos but I do have to say I love you and Danny as a team. You both share a love of your magnificent Hidden treasures
This has to be one of my favorite episodes. I'm pleasantly surprised to see almost no decay compared to others that have been abandoned for just as long (20 years). The houses in Switzerland must be very well made. Looks like all it needs is a little dusting and cleaning and you can move right in! Couldn't help but notice the double pane windows with the big gap in between. Certainly that must also help perserve the home. And I also wonder about the atmospheric conditions in that area that also contributes to the preservation. Cool discovery!
Beautiful. So sad the homes are left .
Thank you. I enjoy your tours.
One of the items you called a stamp press is in fact a ink blotter. These were used for nib and ink writing, you rolled them over the fresh ink writing to stop it ‘bleeding’ on the page. Thank you for your great commentary and for sharing what you see. All the best.
I remember this video , I saw it before but still a beautiful place to see again with your eyes thanks for showing it again from Pasadena Texas.
I have really enjoyed this video thanks for taking me along.
What an amazing video thanks for sharing this. I absolutely loved it
Lesley, que pena no entender tu relato, no tenía subtítulo en español, saludo desde Argentina 🇦🇷
What a beautiful man you are and I really enjoyed the home thank you. Xx from Australia.
Que lugar tan lindo y me encantan las telas de arañas ,que triste ver todo eso abandonado , me gusto el video y tambien tus Calzones azules 👍🇨🇱❤☺
That is a rice cooker inside the cabinet.
I love this. Please make more contents and I pray that people will donate to your channel
God bless. ☺️🙏
Thank you for sharing.
Ich kann leider nicht so gut english, darum schreibe ich das auf deutsch. Die Zigarettenreste hat man früher im Garten unter die Pflanzen in die Erde gemischt. Es war ein natürliches Mittel gegen Blattläuse. Vielleicht daher dieses Glas mit Zigarettenresten. Früher waren Zigaretten ja auch einiges billiger. Der Name "Simon" an der Tür lässt darauf schließen, dass zwei Familien in diesem Haus gelebt haben. In Deutschland ist das auch manchmal so wie hier. Aber ich denke die Familie oben war mit der unteren Familie verwandt oder so. Vermutlich hat ein Kind mit der Familie in einem Haus gewohnt. In der Schweiz haben oft große Familien früher zusammen gewohnt.
Lesley saludos desde Monterrey México....es bellísima está exploración tiene artículos únicos gracias por compartirlo lo disfrute muchos cada semana espero ansiosa una nueva exploración 😘
Как грустно выглядят оставленные дома. Будто время в них остановилось... 😟
Always interesting,thanks Evard!
So very beautiful thank you from Georgia
I found this channel with the video 11 month ago 😭 the France 17 century castle, I wish I was there, that was my biggest dream, I love the themes of castle, I don't know why but everytime when I saw this kind like House or Castle in any kind of documentary I'm always feeling like this is my era and my type of house 1514
Yes ! Me too : I am very fond of wooden walls... It's more ... warm and welcoming...
Muito booom. Parabéns por seu trabalho. Seus vídeos, a experiência é incrível. Será que o Brasil tem casas como essa abandonadas?
Lesley I’m pretty new too your channel thanks for sharing sending greetings from Orlando Florida USA 👋
Hi Lesley & Guys it's nice to see New faces this home is Definitely an Historic Building it Should be Looked after & Cleaned I'd Clear those Cobwebs Lesley with my long Feather duster lol its a beautiful Mansion it's so sad it's left Abandoned I'm just asking Does Switzerland maintain Historic buildings & homes? Lesley the Clock is Stuck at 7:07 not 1.30pm just thought I'd Mention it your so respectful in Your Explores I wonder if Edward has family members Grand kids still alive? thanks Again for a awesome explore.
Gracias por el paseo que fue marabilloso .
I look forward to your videos. It still makes me sad to see such beautiful places abandoned, with no one to love them. It does my heart good however to see explorers such as yourself, show these places with respect and even leave them in a little better condition than when you found them. Thank you for that!
Very Beautiful place and with all the beautiful things inside
You should move the paintings and antiques out of the attic. Some local people should do it.
I love beautiful house like that
wow so cool old house i like i count up to that guy he was born in the 1925 if he did he 97 years old today cost my momshe whould turn97 years old in july 31 1925 ty for video
It is sad that so many abandoned homes recently on various sites are dust cobweb free, like this. I find it hard to believe that it is abondenec as it looks well maintained
All those paintings are very intriguing! What if some are missing art from war time?
Tak Pan pięknie opowiada , jestem zawiedziona , że tłumaczenia w języku polskim nie ma w wielu Pana filmach. Jest Pan urodzonym gawędziarzem bo świetne ma Pan komentarze w każdej produkcji. Jak dla mnie Pana filmy są najfajniejsze bo do obrazu historycznego dostajemy jeszcze mase wiadomości. Niestety nie znam języków. Życzę , aby Pan ze swoją ekipą dalej produkowali te piękne perełki przemijającej historii. Pozdrawiam i dziękuję.
Hola Lesley hermoso lugar.Me gusta mucho tu forma de hacer videos.Cariños desde Argentina 😘🇦🇷🇦🇷😘
Wow that was amazing and beautiful
Well done a job well done.
Very beautiful and historic.
Can you please explore more castles and places of famous artists and authors movie directors,poets,architects.
Prime ministers mayors, forest offers etc.
the painting lookslike the dutch brothers/masters picture on the cigar boxes.
Hellloooo~I’m really interested about exploring abandoned houses on Switzerland,I would like to ask you if this be fine to know the location?I have always been interested in this, but I have never had the opportunity to visit these mysterious and beautiful houses with the personal aesthetics of the landlord.
28:33 It was hung on radiators and filled with water, it is a humidifier.
Nice house. I like the stoves with the steps and the colors. Wouldn't it be a nice idea to clean up places instead of, putting spray paint everywhere. Whenever I leave a comment it will always be nice, because I can't think of anything bad to say about you. I wish other people thought that way.
That’s sad You broke in on someone’s property you should be arrested
28:38 This is a humidifier. Inside is a felt mat and water was poured into the lower right half and the felt soaked up the water. Then you hung it on a heating radiator or, as in this case, on an oven wall. The medals are for good performance in the 300-meter military rifle, which conscripts have to complete once a year. The obligatory is compulsory for members of the army and the field shooting is optional - the second is a kind of folk festival for men with new and old Swiss military rifles. Both go over 300 meters and have requirements such as single shot and fast firing at two different targets. 31:32 Muuhahahaha, this thing is not to seal envelopes, but to dry the ink on a freshly written letter.
That grinder can be to puree the fresh tomatoes to puree....
I saw the old city of Schaffhausen in the old book and the Rhine Falls
If it is possible to do so, occasionally show the tools that you happen to see in these homes you are able to explore. In this home you passed by a small toolbox full of tools. Tools are very historic and help tell the story of the people that once lived there. I would be interested in all of the older hand tools and even there makers/brand.
Que sont-ils devenu les enfants, pour que cette si belle demeur soit a l'abandon???
I'm sorry, 😂 but when you opened that door I started laughing to see a wall there, now I want to know if the others and the ones downstairs are the same🤔the keys on the piano may work;
Wish we knew the history of these places....
Possibly no other relatives to take it over, taxes owed to high , the antiques are a small fortune but included in sale of the house making it almost to expensive to purchase so it belongs to the state like they would do here in the states.....who could afford to purchase this most likely wouldn't want it.... between the asking price and what it would cost to restore it just wouldn't be worth it to them.
It's the second time, that I see a piano placed in a corridor ! It's strange : who would play the piano on one corridor ? It's uncomfortable and not easy for your friends to listen you.
How can I see this vid? 😭
Me as well
That picture in the room is not a soldier, it is the icon of saint George.
Deposé es una palabra que se le asignaban a cosas que fabricaban en un país para otras fábricas de otres países.
lol lesley. the clock is stuck at 7:07 not 1:30
I THINK AFTER HE LOST HIS WIFE THAT HE WAS PROBABLY LONELY THERE BY HISSELF AND THE MEMORIES WERE ALSO PROBABLY TO MUCH FOR HIM TO HANDLE ON HIS OWN SO HE LEFT THERE AND MAYBE HE HAD A SICKNESS AND HE NEEDED TO BE CLOSER TO GET TREATMENT, WHEN YOU GET OLDER IN LIFE YOU REALIZE THAT YOU JUST DONT NEED SO MANY POSSESSIONS, AFTER Wtching these abandoned places IT reminds me that I need to get rid of some of my stuff before that day sneaks upon me and someone will be going through my belongings too ,they would be so surprised at me because I have probably 10 or more Bibles and I switch them from time to time and many papers I take notes on so yea other people lives make us realize we to will just be a memory in someone's heart ❤️ 💙 💜 one day
If someone ever goes through my abandoned house and things and I have things that someone wants ,I would rather someone take what they want instead of leaving it to just rot away ,I find that's a waste and I think I'd rather someone can have anything of mine and enjoy it ,that makes more sense to me then letting it go to waste
That's not an "envelope press" on the desk. It's a rocker blotter, with a piece of blotting paper on it. J. Hérbin still makes small rocker blotters. I have one, because I write with antique fountain pens.
Things written with liquid ink take a bit of time to dry. To make them dry instantly, you can press the blotter on them, to absorb the excess ink.
This is so cool! I cannot believe how clean and neat that place is! I wish we knew more history of it. Where are his Children? Thank you for sharing this!
You can tell they are minimalists, no junk anywhere. Beautiful house.
I love your ending sentiment thanking Edward for his life and enabling you to bring it to the internet to never be forgotten 🥰🙏
So, stop complaining and owning the world because we are all dying on the day we're born. 🙏
What a great find, the wood accents were very exceptional from the cedar? Built in cabinets to the trim all over the house. I was surprised that the master bedroom was so clean after all these years , the still made bed and white bedspread. The wallpaper was charming. I enjoyed that it appeared that the gentleman still did his own dishes, kept fine cordial type drinks for entertaining and even washed the ash tray, such tidiness. The upstairs living room looked very comfortable in a by gone era way, it all was very charming, thank you for sharing.
Looks very interesting Lesley ,we have missed our Sunday family live chat lv Ann uk 🇬🇧
This mansion is a treasure! Thank you so much for taking us along and sharing! You always do wonderful Leslie! So sad nobody lives there in that wonderful place!
The love and respect you show for your abandoned places.. is heartwarming. 💜
The white device on the wall is an air humidifier. Put water in it.
The place behind the bed is NOT to put wood in it but place a bed warmer in it for example stones to heat up.
The half pipe shaped block on the desk is for to clean dry paint after written to a letter !
It could be where they stored smoked meat and fish after it was smoked somewhere else! But I bet there’s not too many flys! I call them my fly catchers! You wouldn’t if you came home after curfew and was trying to sneak up to bed. It’s a meat grinder or any other food grinder depending on what blade was on there. Didn’t they have a toilet 🚽 in the bathroom. He could have had a compost toilet if he was there until 2002?
Hi Lesley, I love watching your videos. I love how you explain things. Keep making great videos thank you. 💖❤💙💜💚💛💐🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
What a beautiful home with a sad end for his loneliness without his love.
Thank you Lesley for this explore!! Everything about this house is absolutely exquisite! A very joyous energy it has!! How fortunate for anyone who had the opportunity to reside there, if even for a short duration.
at 22:24 ...."Clock Stuck At 1:30 In The Afternoon"???
Am I Trippin'!?? I Read 7:07 .....Right!??🤨😕
I noticed the same thing. No, you're not trippin'.
@@doloresm7396 So did I.
Questa casa non sembra abbandonata....in Italia le case in cui non vive più nessuno sono sempre in disordine. In questa stanza sembrerebbe che il proprietario possa rientrare da un momento all'altro
It is an emotional high of the week to go back in time with Bros of Decay!!!
Постели до сих пор чистые, белоснежные, так и хочется туда прилечь и полежать.
the cigarette stubs in the glass, were saved to be later taken apart and made new cigarettes with
I find it interesting that there are no cob webs upstairs. The painted walls are still shiny too. Really intriguing.
A beautiful place with many precious memories! The stoves and furniture look really interesting! Those abandoned paintings in the attic are such a sad sight!!
Thank you for this nice exploration!
Hi Lesley, everyone. From South Africa. Limpopo. I love watching you discoveries-daily. I like the way you do your videos.
Lovely old home. I feel the sadness there of when he was there alone and I've also feel the warmth of when they were together there' it's a lovely place' it's quaint. They must have had a nice time living there. RM thank you for showing it to us it was very nice.
He lived a very good and long life. I hope he was happy in his simple life. Was there any children and where are they today ? I guess we will never know. Keep up the great job you do finding homes for us to look at. Stay safe and i will be watching for you next week.
I still have a food grinder and we use it. Looks exactly the same. As usual, these homes leave a sinking feeling in my heart. A very lonely feeling. But I wouldn't miss any of them. Thank you
This was a great find. I was curious why the children of the parents did not take over the house? I also like that you always keep the location a secret. I can't wait until the next adventure.
I always think about where the owners were gone after watching videos like this.I watch all of your videos and I wish you good health.
This is so beautiful! How exciting to be in Switzerland! 🥰😍
Hermosa casa y bien mantenida a pesar de años de abandono.Lastima que ninguno de sus hijos quiera vivr en ella y asi mantenerla en buen estado.Saludos desde Argentina
Once more another beautiful home.. saved in time for us to see! Thanks for sharing!
I really enjoy your videos. Thanks for sharing these beautiful homes with the rest of us. I have to say I love the way you show respect for these places no matter what the condition. Keep sending videos our way. ❤️
O que me incomoda é pensar que nenhum parente próximo ou mesmo os filhos não querem saber da casa, nem das lembranças da família.
Absolutely loved this beautiful place Leslie!!! Sooo very nice & pristine!!! It makes me sooo very sad that the children of Edward didn’t take care of him, at the end of his life😞😢😰It breaks my heart ♥️ that they didn’t come back for the priceless air looms & memorabilia, such as pictures, his medals of honor, the antique wooden furniture, glassware, beautiful pewter candle sticks & sooo very many other cherished memories…the artwork in the attic was probably priceless!!!😢😞😰 The structure, other than the roof, which needs reroofed, looked to be in reasonably good shape 👍 Sad that it can’t be bought, if not moved into by family members & be loved once again!!!❤️ The authentic wooden wall paneling, doors & windows…were absolutely gorgeous!!! Thank you for sharing this wonderful adventure with us Leslie! I truly loved it ❤️❤️❤️
Cool you’re in Switzerland 🇨🇭 have fun & drive slow 😉
Your respect and reverence for the memory of Edward come through clearly. I don't think he would mind you exploring his home.
