37:02 - this is not a washing machine, but a honey extractor. My father and I used exactly the same Soviet-made device in the mid-90s when pumping honey in my father's apiary in Russia.
my late grand father also had this from before ww.2; yes this is for honey....that is why there were honey containers in that room; forgot to add IN POLAND
Yep, for honey. I use a very similar one in USA.
Hi Lesley, the item you call washing machine in the bedroom is actually used to spin the honey. Lovely to go back in time. Your excitement in going into these abandoned house is catching. Thank you 🌻
Just wanted to say the same think.. my grandma and grandpa had one very similar.
This reminds me of my Grandparents farmhouse, where I lived as a young girl. I learned to cook and bake on a wood burning stove like the big one in the kitchen. The barn with a window to the kitchen was winter quarters for animals, and warmth put off by their bodies would help warm the house. In summer they were mostly in the pastures and outside pens. We had storm windows as well, to help insulate the home.
The girl with flowers in her hair in the photo probably had to do with celebrating Walpurgisnacht, May Eve. The item you called a “press for sealing letters” was a blotter, it would be rocked across any writing to absorb any ink that was still wet, and help it dry more quickly. We used an outhouse for going to the washroom, and a chamberpot under the bed at night, which was emptied in the morning. You washed up in the morning from a bowl in your bedroom, and bathed once a week in a metal bath filled with water heated on the stove. It was put in front of the fireplace.🖤🇨🇦
I am so worried about Maureno. Please give us some information about the state he is in right now.
Yes, I was just thinking about the same thing..Hope all is well with him...
@@rosebud7722 Me too.
Yes I'm concerned about him and would love an update please.
I wish we had an update as well
Yo sigo tu canal y también Explomo, me gustaría saber cómo está Maureno? gracias
How is Mauerno feeling hope he improving. Like your video
Great find, Thanks to the Swiss for not vandalizing this place over the last 70 years, these videos always leave me with a heavy heart and sadness.
I'm the one to blame, I take care of the place every now and then, just keeping all the furniture how it was and protecting it from vandalism
Hi Lesley . Beautiful mansion love all the furniture and old books and stuff. Stay safe. Any news about our dear friend maureno I’m so worried.👍❤️😍👏🔥
Hi Lesley 👋 The item you describe as "a press to seal envelopes..." is actually an ink blotter. When one wrote with a pen dipped into ink, wet ink would be left behind. You would then "roll" this ink blotter over what you had written, to BLOT UP the excess ink when it was still wet on the paper! This would prevent you from having smeared/smudged words and paper. (Hope this wasn't too confusing!) 🙂
Also what he called a knitting box, was actually a sewing box.
He's been told that many times! But he always says it's to seal envelopes. He acknowledged one person back in the beginning when he still read our comments.
We look for years for antiques & you go into abandon places & boom there's thousands of beautiful treasures. I love seeing them in their original used undisturbed state much better than viewing them for sale in an antique store. Really cool makes you feel like you're that time & space.
It's sad to see old photos, especially of children, left behind and forgotten. Have you ever considered doing research into who once owned these places and perhaps finding and interviewing them just to answer some questions like why they left and putting names to the faces in the photos? That would be interesting to watch.
I agree with you
That might be tricky, because then they would have to admit to trespassing. After all what they doing is illegal.
Да точна. Всё таки интересно.
zgadzam sie; tak to smutne ze tyle rezydencji dalej jest zaniedbanych przez rodziny ....
It definitely would be interesting!!
37:17 is a honey separator and it spins honey off the comb. We still use it today but electric.
Time to relax with your videos how is your brother doing been praying for him and everyone!!!
How is maureno doing?
The shoes with metal spikes aren't for rock climbing but are for traction on ice in the winter. I was glad that someone mentioned the honey extractor as it's not a washing machine. It seems to me that the man of the house was a holocaust survivor and returned home alone, maybe allowed some others to stay above the barn to help with the farm but passed away a few years later. I would like it if you could check for dates on newspapers to help with a better time line. Nice explore, you have a pleasant voice.
thank you for keeping the people alive, from the places you go too, the past is a great thing to remember
Excited about this one Lesley..wow, a outhouse in the barn/storage room. I can't believe it! 70yrs being abandoned, is a long time. Love that stove in that cute little kitchen, everything is left in that curio, almost like the family went out for the day and just never returned. Love everything about this once beautiful home..stay safe healthy and blessed! Everyone ☀️🌴
Television was just making its way into peoples homes in 1951. It's strange how 1951 seems like it's 150 years ago to you, for me it's not that long ago. I was born in 1959.
@Great Gig in the Sky. 🤣😂🤣😂🤣 you are true history like he said!!!
We got ours in 1963.
I was born in 59 too!
So true.
@@patriciaanne7932 It was a good year.
Hi Lesley, another great find. Is there any news on Maureno? I truly hope he's recovering well and will soon be able to return home 🏡 safely to his family. 💖💖🙏🙏
Same here!
Hello Maria how are you doing
With your family i do hope you’re
Safe from the Covid?
Double windows are very very very common in Poland also; to keep warm in the winter and windows shutters closed firstly from inside and than windows also to keep the manors ' safe for nobility ....I remember that from my childhood....also the sent have in my lungs from that wood the windows were made....long long before....Cheers !
Hi Lesley, the item you called as washing machine is a honey extractor.It was a wonderful video
I saw it and recognised the extractor too. Agree great video
yes
Yes! I would LOVE to have all those beautiful vintage honey pots and extractor! Beautiful video! Thank you for sharing ♥️
Hi it's Louanne here, yes I did think it was a honey extractor first, as one would put the honeycomb in top part first & then press, then the pure honey runs into the tub...tell me if I got the part right. Then second thought was don't laugh where one would keep churning the milk to make cheese 😁 lol
That's true. Honey extractor
I luv your videos. I’m terminally Ill and the videos keep my mind off of How ill am so thank you for all you do for me. Your a joy in my life.❤️🇺🇸🌹
So sorry about your diagnosis. May God bless you with peace and a pain free loving passage.
Awe….thank you. It’s been rough. Still trying to find some peace within my self.🌹❤️
I visited this place so often in the last 2 years, it's so interesting to see it from your perspective, seeing it the way you envision it. I filmed my first (and last) TH-cam video with commentary in that place... So many memories, thank you for sharing, I'm looking forward to going on tour with you soon!
My great grandfather was born in Switzerland and is on my bucket list! Incredible video, Beautiful country!!
I wish you would take an older person with you that could explain some of the stuff you find. Someone that knows history. You would learn so much more.
HE IS DOING JUST FINE.
That's what the comments are for. If you read through them, you will find that there are many knowledgeable people explaining different things. And most everyone is nice to each other. That's one of the reasons I enjoy this channel so much.
About the bathroom, you passed right over the chamber pot in the parents room. This brings back so many memories for me, as I born over 70 years ago. Thank you for this look back. My childhood home only eists in pictures now.
Hi Lesley! I think this place was abandoned less than 70 years ago. I see that some electrical furniture looks modern than 50's - rectangular and sharp-edged. Also, vacuum cleaner looks like from 60's. But six decades, I think, is enough long time too.
Also the little plastic bag from a shop, seen in the sewing box, I don't think they existed 70 years ago.
Agreed. Some of the things in the house dont look as if they date to the 50s.
There are newer than seventy year old items in that place. The roof on it will outlast most all the rest of the place. The clock on the wall is pretty, and the way it’s heated is very energy efficient. People should go back in time for a lot of things.
Very interesting...I never imagined abandoned Swiss homes. Lesley, can you give us any feedback on Maureno? I am most concerned about him.
I just discovered your channel a couple of weeks ago I'm from Florida USA
I love the fact that you share a history before exploring I also enjoy your sensitivity to the people that lived there it just makes it so much more meaningful
As you pass over the books that are on nightstands and as a bibliophile I would love that you mention the titles I think it would add to the time period and I'm confident that all the other readers out there would enjoy it also..thank you for sensitive European exploring...wonderful!
Yes! I also wished he would have read a few titles. Often the books people kept show their interests and beliefs more than any other thing.
Great video, but right at the start there are newspapers with Charles and Diana on them so somebody was there in the 80s or early 90s.
Very true ! Also Transparent plastic egg carton and yellow plastic bag he found and that plastic vacum cleaner was not from in 1951 ! More like the 70s 80s.. There's no way that it's been abandoned for 70 years, there's too much plastic stuff in it that reminded me of the 80s that plastic egg holder and matchboxes didn't look old to me either in a kitchen the 1940 and 1950 match boxes were in a wooden box with rubbers on the side not just white paper boxes like in the 80-90 s I also noticed a plastic yellow beverage bottle on the floor in a corner of the room
Them being bee keepers, the item in the bedroom next to the bed, the large round one is a bee keepers honey extractor. Awesome, find Leslie. We just found you about 2 weeks ago. We really enjoy watching you.
Heyy dear Lesley, That is really looking incredibly well preserved. Amazing! - Of course this is especially interesting for me, as
you found that location in Switzerland. - That photographic portrait is also remarkably interesting to see and showing
a very beautiful lady in a 19th century attire, as I presume. - The room has a total time capsule vibe with beautiful furniture
from the period. - The hat and the pair fo shoes give you the impression, as if the person of that place would return at any moment,
although they might have been placed there already for decades. - So, my dear friend, I am already very excited to see this video.
Stay safe, bro, peace and kindest regards. - Any news of our dear friend Maureno already?
I hope he found the time to visit you Willy. He’s a good lad, so of course you have had a beer or two together 😊
@willy Egger Switzerland looks amazing.
@@olebrgesen795 , Hi Ole Borgesen Yes, he did so - and together with exactly these two guys, you can see in the video,
they visited me last year in July and that was absolutely wonderful. They all are well mannered lovely young men,
that I felt so happy to accomodate them. - Wishing you all the best and kindest regards.
@@careyh38 , Hi Carey H, thank you so much! I also like living here! - Peace and kindest regards.
all the history, moments full of love and life forgotten forever in time, nobody will remember, but whole life's lived
Hi Lesley & 2 Friends, this from June12, 2022 now it is February 23, 2023 ) From Switzerland Abandoned Time Capsule
Wow 70 yrs but from 2022- 70 = 1952 Not 1951, I know you found a Booklet with that Year, but what was Funny...was when You
said Ancient Times from 1951, I was born in 1951 haha!! Back then farmers were too tired from getting up early & work the
fields to even watch TV, so they listened to the Radio! Farmers back then didn`t have toilets inside, had a Outhouse & didn`t have
Running Water, had a kitchen sink, but had to fill a bucket from the Well for water...to wash dishes & themselves!
I loved the clock!! As for stairs outside, they would not be closed in with a wall, open with stairs!
Those were 4 bedrooms, 1 for parents & 3 for children, & very Large Bedrooms, When I was little till I was 1966, I shared
the bedroom with my sister, it was Small!! You saw a Military Coat with what you say a Flute, we call it a Whistle!!
Wow, after reading comments those hiking boots, were Snow boots with the prongs on them!
Love the history of what you knew, but You say Costumes, but here it`s Clothes & Men had Suit Jackets!
I learned a lot from comments as well, Very Interesting!!
Thanks again, take care & stay safe!! Love from Central Illinois America 🥰😎💯❤
One of the good things about you is , you are kind to the stuff you come across. I think it is a good idea to wear gloves. So the oils of your hands don't hurt the things you touch. They protect you too.by keeping mold spores off of you. Nobody wants to get sick.
Hello from USA 🇺🇸 Fun to watch your videos. Thank you for sharing your exploring. Neat thing to do. We did that in some area's around here, but most where vandalized 😞 Keep up the good work😙
I love this house more than all the others. Thank you
What a wonderful old pristine property 👍🙏❤️ I loved this beautiful home!!! Sad that the antique, wooden furniture isn’t saved & restored😞 Thank you Leslie for a wonderful place in this gorgeous country 👍🙏❤️
Fantástico abandono, como siempre. Saludos desde México. Lamento mucho lo de EXPLOMO. Ojalá estén mejor.
Que le pasoó
I love how they lived in such peace and harmony. I myself am a 70's and 80's child grown up in west flanders Belgium. I miss them good old days.
How do you figure they lived in peace and harmony!? Maybe they did, maybe there was a lot of abuse and disharmony, maybe something in between. Nobody knows
@@Puschit1 I agree we do not know how they felt for sure. I am only expressing my own viewpoint based on my own experiences in a similar environment. Of course they would have formed their own way of looking at and understanding objects, people and general atmosphere of their environment based on how they naturally perveive things as well as based on their past experiences, decisions they made in the past, future anxiety, fears, hopes and desires.
The newspapers if they are ON the wall was actually wallpaper in the day. Theyd crumple them up and dtop them in the walls for insulation. Huge fire hazard but folks were much less careless back than.
What an amazing home. It should be preserved as is and made a museum. What a treat. Theres nothing like that here in america.
The ‘washing machine’. Is a honey extractor. 😊. Love your exploring!
I really enjoyed the video. Now I’m wondering if you have any news on Morano. Please let us all know if he got back home. Thanks for the great video.
Lesley, I love your videos...You're so much like Maureno... I hope he's ok
Wow! It was awesome to see this abandoned big house. Everything was exactly as it was 70 years ago! I can't wait for the next week video. I love your channel, keep doing this! You're cool and kind. I always love your explanation of every details of the house. And you always travel the world to explore more and more abandoned place for us. Thank you for that! ❤️
Hermoso video.. ahí no he visto cosas de plástico,todo muy natural y hermoso, un verdadero túnel del tiempo...muy bueno gracias...!!! Quisiera saber algo de Maureno por favor.. todos estamos preocupados y sin noticias de tu amigo.. un beso enorme para vos y tu equipo.. 💕💕💕🇦🇷🙋❤️
The roof held up real good...no rain getting in like normal on these older houses that have been left behind...
GREAT JOB ONCE AGAIN LESLEY STAY SAFE WE WILL KEEP WATCHING
Hello Lesley! Very incredible house where the time forgot past and stayed frozen there. The house is very cute and cozy and your kindness to show the 📷 is amazing 👏 😉🤗❤👍
Halo lesly apakah itu budaya bagi orang eropa untuk meninggalkan rumah walau mempunyai kenangan masa lalu mereka, kalau kami di Indonesia tidak pernah meninggalkan rumah begitu saja. Terima kasih sudah berbagi lesly
From 1949 we lived in northern New England. There were no TV channels and the nearest was Boston. My Father was a barber and I would go with him to handicapped people to cut their hair in their homes. One man had a big tower outside his home and we entered at the end of his bed was a small TV with a screen. First tv I had ever seen. Great video.
I had to watched this video again. The layout of this beautiful house is crazy wonderful. I'm just baffled about why the family left this wonderful home and everything behind. Where did they go and why didn't they come back for their personal items? I love videos like this such a mystery. Lesley, this was one awesome video!!! I think the only bathroom they had was that outhouse...stay safe healthy and blessed everyone!! See you on your next adventure...😊
I saw a Chamber pot in the downstairs bedroom, that was their other toilet! Love the chalet style of the house.
I enjoyed this home too. It's really a lovely place.
Me too. Hello Margaret
How are you doing with your family i do hope you’re safe from the Covid?
Thank you for taking us with you. So sad yet so interesting.
An amazing presentation of a time capsule locked in time! Wow!
Awesome and amazing video 📹. I love 💘 this older house. Very nice house. I hope that your brother is doing better. Prayers for him 🙏 ❤ 💙. Stay safe 👌 👍 🙏 ❤ 💓 💙
Hi Lindsay loved this video. I chuckled when I saw you described the honey extractor as the washing machine. Tins made sense when you see 2 items together. Can't wait till next week
The washing machine is a honey separator. You put your honey combs in the baskets and hand spin the honey out of the comb.
Another awesome video, so fascinating. Also learned from the comments what a honey extractor is.
Thank you Lesley for sharing these time capsules with us. Can’t wait to see more.
Hola estimado amigo!! Disfruté mucho de ésta nueva exploración (sigues superandote a tí mismo) Lo que me llamó la atención es, que una casa tan especial no tuviese baños. Yo soy de 1943 en Uruguay y todas las casas tenían baños. En ésos años a mi país le llamaban la Suiza de América por sus avances y Suiza era ejemplo de lo mejor. Mi comentario es solo por curiosidad. Esperando el próximo vídeo, te saluda afectuosamente desde Gran Canaria
Solo tenía un baño! Pero está deteriorado.
Great video thanks for sharing. Love the beautiful antiques keep sharing.
The "toilet" in the barn actually had the seat behind it. Guessing it was an out house and they had it in the barn instead of in the yard because it gets so cold there.
Yes, I noticed that too -- that wooden seat I mean.
The tiled stove/heater in the living room, they have those in Austria too. My auntie in Vienna has one in her living room.
Beautiful home. It has been empty longer than I am old. Thank you for all you do to bring us a look at times long gone. Thanks for your exploration and sharing with us.
Very beautiful and historic family home
You are really excellent at telling stories and explaining everything about the family.
Keep up the excellent job.
The first thing coming to my mind is that it's look like a boarding house ( once the children are gone ?). A honey maker, a soldier, a private entrance. Two grown men. Only an hypothesis...
That's a really interesting place, Lesley! The vintage photos are heartmelting, why would people leave their family memories behind? Thank you for the lovely exploration!!!
Best house I’ve seen yet so many linens, curtains, and clothes all in amazing condition! Loved it!
It seems to me, what once were children's bedrooms may have become rented rooms possibly.
Lesley, you are the best part of these explorations. I love the way you describe things and tell stories. You make it so much more interesting when you explore these abandoned houses. Thank you so much for what you do.
Maravilloso tus videos!! Te sigo desde Mexico! Gracias! Felicidades 🙌🏽
Fantastic explore, very interesting. Really neat shoes. Loved the honey containers. Thank you. Stay safe.
Good explore. It always fascinates me to see how people lived before I was even born. Love it! Thank you!
Beautiful there.
Same here. Hello Susan how are you doing today i do hope you’re safe from the Covid?
Wow! What a beautiful portrait!
love your enthusiasm. Never lose this part of yourself.
Love your elaborate storytelling. What an amazing find.
One of my favorites so far. They lived so simple, I Love it.
Bros Of Decay ,me encantan tus videos son como transportarnos a la maquina del tiempo ,muchisimas gracias, bendiciones.
I absolutely LOVE your sense of imagination as you describe your adventures!!! Thank you!! Have you ever thought that some of these abandoned places, with all the contents still left in them were victims of the holocaust?
Not in 1951 and not in Switzerland. I thought Switzerland was neutral during World War II (which ended in 1945).
My thoughts excately
Swiss history. Amazing.
What a treasure. And I love the respect you show. Very well done.
love the wooden clock and the pink cushion with dogs !
Thank you for another exciting explore, was so many wonderful things, and wonderful photos, you are always so excited and show so much respect for all the ideams that you show.Would be real nice to see in more draws and closers.God bless you and keep you all safe as you share these wonderful places.Hope all is well now with your brother .
Awesome video. Thank You guys.❤
I'm so emotional,70 years❣️💕
Not 70 years.. Transparent plastic egg carton and yellow plastic bag was not from in 1951! More like the 70s 80s.. There's no way that it's been abandoned for 70 years, there's too much plastic stuff in it that reminded me of the 80s that plastic egg holder and matchboxes didn't look old to me either in a kitchen the 1940 and 1950 match boxes were in a wooden box with rubbers on the side nat just white paper boxes like in the 80-90 s I also noticed a plastic yellow beverage bottle on the floor in a corner of the room
Looking at that video makes me think "what the life is". We come and leave then we are forgotten.
Knowing how good hearted you are I bet you put the snail outside 🤗❤️ This was nice, enjoyed it as usual. Bravo. 😚
Amazing home so much history of 70 years ago and so much left i loved it guys .
🌹🤜❤️🤛🌹

UN LUGAR MUY INTERESANTE, MUCHO QUE VER, AUN
TIENE TANTAS COSAS,
AUNQUE HOY NO ENTEDI LA HISTORIA,
PERO LO DISFRUTE VIENDO. ME ENCANTA
CUANDO HABRES GABETAS, LAS OLLAS.
ETC. TENGO CURIOSIDAD QUE HAY
DENTRO. ESO ES EXPLORAR.
TE FELICITO 🌟👍🥰
That was awesome 😊, thankyou for sharing
Thank you Lesley, that place was fascinating. I could imagine the four kids running through the house and out into the yard to play. I could also hear that beautiful wall clock chiming away in the nighttime silence as everyone slept soundly in their beds. Thank you for taking us along with you. I can't wait till the next adventure. Love you much. Be safe.
Absolutely lovely!
What a sweet farmhouse. I was most struck by the children’s bedrooms. They seemed to be well loved by the nature of each darling little room. I imagine they were a close family, warm and affectionate. Thanks guys!
Fantastic documentary 🎉. Oh my! 70 years of abandonment. It looked so neat with vandalism. Old photos are my favorite and the bedrooms were amazing 🤩
Keep up these superb documentaries!♥️
Can't wait for period costumes ❤️
Hey Lesley! Your Van is so cool! This video is amazing! I love livestream! You are admirable! 👏👋🤗🇧🇷
Lesley, you have a excitining job , oh how I would loves to restore these places
29:32 that is a chamber pot,
(a nighttoilet") on the on the heater. There were no bathrooms in such houses, the toilet was mostly outside on the veranda. The second front window was only used in the winter, to reduce heat loss in the house. Thanks for that video, loved it! Greetings from the 🇨🇭 mountains! And the hiking shoes were work shoes to have a better grip.
Beautiful scenery. So much like B.C. Canada where i was raised. I was born 1955. Got our first tv 1963. So long ago in our minds but only a moment in history. You find such interesting places.
Hi great film keep up exploring and doing what you do
