Please forgive the stupid question but who are the owners?

@vivalaleta 2 месяца назад

You can look it up. I think Wikipedia states who the current owners are.

@MidnightVisions 11 месяцев назад

I hope you suggested to Macron to reduce the tax on Chateau owners, especially the crippling inheritance taxes. Your children won't be able to pay those taxes and will loose the Chateau then.

@JeremeyHowlett 10 месяцев назад

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 2 месяца назад

If you can't pay the tax don't live so large. It's nauseating that you've asked for tax relief for the rich.

Congratulations Felicity and Tim on your progress and the well earned recognition from President Macron. We hope you didn't get any ideas about returning to politics Tim! The facade and roof on the eastern wing are spectacular. The open day looked wonderful we would love to come along next year. Is it always held in September? That shower is going to be so well deserved! We've not got around to becoming a patron but we will soon! Best wishes Maria e Rowan

@kirstiemarshall7764 11 месяцев назад

Spectacular! Such immense progress in a proportionally short time. Having watched the Chateau deteriorate for so many years, everyone from the locals to the President is proud of your restoration achievements. Looking forward to the next update already. Congratulations. 👏👏👏

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" _* 😳😲😣

@YM-rt1jy 4 месяца назад

@@liongod1000 The French have been restoring and renovating their chateaux and historical houses/buildings for decades and decades. They don't have english-speaking RU-vid 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.

@MrPoilleke 19 дней назад

@@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 😢

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

Had seen you flag the exhibition at Palais de L'Élysée with Pres Macron on your Instagram and was so utterly delighted for you all- and how well deserved Purnon was to be featured. just brilliant stuff! you guys just keep knocking this out of the park. The Journées du patrimoine such a success too...Not a step wrong- and just a brilliant job for this very deserving site...

💐👏🙌👏💐such a well deserved honour to meet the President 💐👏🙌👏💐 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?? 🌹You are doing a magnificent restoration - keep smiling your glorious smile and carry on❣️🌹
