Perched on a hill just on the outskirts of a small French village, is an abandoned chateau that’s been a well-kept secret for many years.
Dating back to the 13th century, this chateau was originally the home of a nobleman and over the course of almost 900 years, and many generation of heirs, it’s been the home of countless occupants including knights, lords, barons, and even a well known French poet during the 20th century.
This fortified castle was originally constructed with a drawbridge and a moat, but they since disappeared over the years and sometime during the Renaissance period, 12 barrel vaulted stables were added, along with renovations at the beginning of the 20th century.
It’s unclear exactly when this place became abandoned but it’s speculated the last known family to live here was during the late 1980’s. We can only assume this castle, like so many others in this part of the world, has been neglected because of the staggering cost of maintaining a 900 year stone structure.
And so, the future of this once illustrious castle is unclear, as it continues to slowly decay and take on the devastation of nature’s unrelenting hand. So let’s step inside this mysterious castle and let’s unveil for the first time ever, what’s hidden within its stone walls.
