    Having the French President acknowledge you Chateau will definitely get your renovation more attention, and hopefully donations to continue on into the future.

      @ChateaudePurnon *_ Hi, what I find quite ironic is that in so many restoration projects all around France, most of them are done by 'Non-French' persons, for example, "Escape to Rural France" and "Bordeaux Life" to name a few. It begs the question, are the French not interested or are they like a Greek man once said to me about his interest in the Parthenon, "Oh they're just a bunch of old stones" _* 😳😲😣

      @@liongod1000 The French have been restoring and renovating their chateaux and historical houses/buildings for decades and decades.
      They don't have english-speaking TH-cam vlogs though and that's why you, Anglo-Saxons, think the French are not interested in their Heritage as you never make the effort of listening to another language than english.
      What a strange thing to say anyway about a people and a country you obviously know nothing about.

      ​@@liongod1000the biggest reason the French is that families/owners don't have that kinda money to even start such a project anymore...and probably like Purnon, having several familymembers owning the place it is getting complicated 😢

      Especially when France is providing most of the funds and the craftsmen nd a lot of support. They have been selected as part of the mission Bern project under the auspices of the minister of culture a program launched by Macron which has helped thousand of historical monuments by their French owners over the years.

    Hi Tim, I saw you pulling nails/staples from the wall with a pair of pliers. Just a hint that I learned from pulling staples from the old floor of the bank - get yourself a pair of pincers. Instead of "pulling" them out, you grab them with the pincers and then pivot/rock using one side of the pincers as leverage, and they come out with very little effort. This method is very quick, and requires almost no effort. Best Regards, Linsey Siede

    What I don't understand is why the nearby villages don't form volunteer groups to help in the restoration of their chateau - especially when over 1000 visit to see your progress.
    Imagine having volunteers maintain the gardens .
    It's the same for all the chateau channels I watch - overseas volunteers but not locals??

    • @JeremeyHowlett
      @JeremeyHowlett ปีที่แล้ว +2

      These chateaus cost way too much money for anyone that isn’t a multi millionaire. To completely restore this chateau the right way, I’d say the minimum cost is 20 million Dollars.

    • @vivalaleta
