Honestly this group is the only owners sharing and giving to the rest of the people and public like this. I can’t say enough about the most honorable intentions of this couple. Salut to them!
I follow 5 other chateaux who all have huge open days for the community, and also do things like allow bike races over their property, host their artisans to special occasions, help fund schools, work with local Marie on clean-ups and upgrades in the community, and lots of other things. You must be watching the wrong ones! All credit to Purnon, but not to denigrate others.
I have loved watching the restoration of chateau Purnon unfold. Your artisans are so dedicated as are you, to bringing the chateau back to life in a historically responsible way. It is reassuring to watch them at work. Joyeux Noël à tous.

Welcome to France - may you enjoy a wonderful Christmas surrounded by love and laughter.
Thank you for celebrating the artisans working on your Chateau they deserve it and should recognize of their specialized work We don't do that enough here in Canada we call them the trades here ! Members of a local yacht club and the work 90 percent done by members mostly over the age of 65 we always bring baked goods to them in the shop ! We would not be a club without them and all their talent to keep this club going will be 100 years old in 2030 !

"I think we are honouring them by showing their work". That was a great thought. True. Your amazing work is helping to understand the history of our build environment, the work of often nameless creators, the arts and crafts, and the necessity to keep the buildings alive by keeping the old crafts alive. And respect the craftsmen and their work.

Thanks for your message and for acknowledging the incredible skills of our artisans whose craftsmanship make this project possible.
The last weeks I saw several documentaries honouring the craftsmen and women, artisans and other workers of Notre Dame de Paris and they got the spotlight from president Macron. It is the same drive and spirit, to do history right, and I am glad that you were also honoured by president Macron for the same reason. Which is fitting.

A very Merry Christmas to you and yours! I love the relationships you have built with the locals and especially with the artisans working on Château de Purnon! Watching the incredible work you and the artisans have done and are doing has been nothing but amazing and exciting. To hear you say that by mid year of 2025 that the whole of the outside structure should be completed where the scaffolding would then come down is beyond exciting. What you have and are doing is magical and is bringing history back to life for that beautiful building. From myself and I am sure with many, many others - I say thank you; not only for taking on this amazing project, but for the love you are pouring into the Château! May the new year be filled with many more completions of individual projects within the Château and find you blessed beyond measure! Take good care of yourselves during this quiet time before the hard work starts over again! Can’t wait to see much more! From Texas, USA!

I agree. There are many reasons why I like watching them. This is one of those reasons. The sincerity.
I follow 5 other chateaux who all have huge open days for the community, and also do things like allow bike races over their property, host their artisans to special occasions, help fund schools, work with local Marie on clean-ups and upgrades in the community, and lots of other things. You must be watching the wrong ones! All credit to Purnon, but not to denigrate others.
