[Music] This is a story that has unfolded  for more than a thousand years,   a story about an ancient castle  that has endured the test of time.   A noble and very influential  Italian family constructed the   Glorious Castle in the 10th century. It has played an instrumental role in   the historical development of  this area throughout history. Various figures have taken it  over at least 20 times and used   it as a base to rule over the underlying kingdom.  With each seizure, the subsequent owners  remodeled and reconstructed the castle   to their taste. They added new sections and  transformed it into a more modern era of rule.   When walking through it, the different  time periods can be seen on the walls.  One last takeover occurred in 1711 when the  Lomellino family seized the castle. Since   they had already ruled this area for so long,  it was only natural that they would also take   this place by force. Their final reconstruction  transformed it into the structure we see today. Furthermore, they developed a wine-producing  business in and around the castle,   producing world-class wines  for centuries to come.  This particular castle has  the longest-lasting history of   anything we have documented before on the channel… Throughout the documentary,   we will go more in-depth on its  history and architectural features! [Music] Good morning everybody, welcome back to  another episode on the Bros Of Decay,   I'm Lesley, and today I'm bringing you  another Castle from the country of Italy. I'm exploring today who my good  friend Maureno from Explomo. Yes it's a very long time since we made  another documentary together and I'm very   excited to have him here with me again. And  Jeroen is also exploring with us like always. So we are here with the van in Italy,  we slept here, it's still nighttime   out and we're gonna make our way  to an abandoned castle right now. Okay you ready Maureno, you got all your stuff? - Yes finally. Finally after half an hour, okay let's go. Let's close this beauty and let's get on  with the exploration. As you can see I'm   already wearing my traditional attire right  now, I have my coat on, but my full outfit   is in my backpack and that's for when we enter  the castle, I am so excited to see this place. I especially went to Italy to just film this  abandoned castle, so it has to happen right now. [Music] The   whole wall is collapsing to this side. Watch out! You good? - I'm good. Okay, let's go. Right now on the main alleyway of the castle, this  used to be the main road where the owners of the   castle used to drive up, first off with their  horse carriages and later on with their cars. [Music] I think I just found an entrance into the castle,   this goes straight into the  basement, let's check that out. Let me crawl through it. Oops! Yeah okay! I just found an entrance into the castle,  it's pretty difficult as you can see,   but this is going to lead us  inside this enormous place! Oh, this looks funny! Can I give you the light  Maureno? Okay, it's my turn,   I still have my attire on, and  I think I'm gonna go feet first. - There we go. I'm a snake, we're inside everybody  so let's start this exploration. [Music] As the last   decedent of the Lomellino family to  live here, Carlos inherited all the   wealth his family gained over the years. He  met his lovely wife Beatrice early in life,   and the two married and built  a beautiful life together.  In their lifetimes, they expanded the  business that their forefathers had   established for them and grew it bigger  than they could have ever imagined. In contrast to previous generations, Carlos  and Beatrice had a relatively small family,   occupying only one section of the  castle, and had few servants.  After their children moved out  to live in more urban areas,   Carlos and his wife retired and closed  their businesses. They also moved out   of the castle after a couple of years  because it had grown too big for them.  This was almost 4 decades ago. For some time,   they kept the house in pristine condition.  However, after the death of their parents,   the children lost interest in this masterpiece  and left everything to decay with time.  This masterpiece is the outcome of  a thousand years' worth of history,   and we will take you on a tour of it today! I'm so excited about this one, I got  my brand new attire custom made and   this is an 18th-century attire so you can  get a representation of how these people   dressed and how they lived in a castle  like this, and let's make this one count. While going throughout this Castle, we're gonna  go from room to room and show you every single   detail that this place has to behold and we're  going to start off here in the dining room,   this is an Italian Castle, so the  most important thing where we're   going to start with it's looking at  the ceilings of this dining room. Have a look at the Magnificent  ceilings that they put in,   it has been done by a famous Italian  artist in 1860, but unfortunately,   I can't give you the name, because I don't  want to reveal the location of this Castle. What first looks like crown molding  and statues are actually 3D artwork   that has been made on the walls in 1860.  Unfortunately, we can see already some cracks   forming over there in the ceiling,  it's cracking up and falling apart   and that's something that shouldn't  happen to a castle like this. I don't understand why, but this place is not  on the UNESCO Heritage list, it should be in my   opinion, as it has so much history at one point  in 1491 a man by the name, who I'm not gonna name   was poisoned in this place and the duke of the  time took over the castle and lived it for 200   years without being punished, that's the kind  of history that contemplated in this place. Look at this wonderful copper Chandelier,  that's hanging here right above the table,   suspended from the ceiling out of these  two angels that we see over there. and this would be the dining table with a  former family owner the former owner Mr Carlos   used to have dinner at together with his family  I always try to imagine how this must have been   like these people sitting here around the table  having a nice dinner party enjoying life wow what a place right behind me here we have some artifacts  left behind this wonderful piece of furniture   completely designed we're going to see numerous  paintings and artworks throughout this place   I already quite like this one two fishermen  probably in Lake Garda here in Italy working away oh I see something else over here sort of a safe actually a storage place  for all the keys for the castle [Music]   see all the keys will be hung up here and it  would be nicely sealed away and hidden from View   I also quite enjoy the wallpaper that I put  in this place and that's one nice fact about   a castle and also grand manners and other rich  places the former owners used to change out the   wallpaper almost every single year the given  appearance of wealth and richness and just   to give the room another look something  that patterns of the time couldn't do   wow we can also see that the IV nature  is growing inside it's literally growing   through the wall into this place that's  actually fascinating and sad at the same time through the walls and this must have probably  been Mr kalush you can see over here on the   date that it has been made in 1909 so  this drawing is about 111 years old wow a marble top most definitely Italian marble and then over here we can see more of nature  creeping inside of this building and taking it   over oh yeah outside there are lots of peacocks  that you're most likely gonna hear out the video   the peacocks are just something that we  are gonna have to deal with throughout   this video but let's not get this down  and let's just go further with this video   on this cabinet over here we can see carvings  and they despect the history of this Castle   because you can see over here there are grapes  and then 1771 when the last family took over this   place they turned it into a grape into a wine  production Farm actually in a wine production   castle and there was the last 200 years of  history for this place we can also see some   musical instruments I think from this I don't  know this is great from the fields wow I love   how they design these cabinets such a meticulous  way it's unfortunately nothing in there anymore   and here we see a poison sprayer I think  this is to numb these but I'm not 100 sure here in the corner of the room we have a  beautiful chassis long a wonderful piece upholstery this bearish upholstery thank you  and a peasant lady I think on the wall praying and then here in the corner of the  room we have this lovely sorted   lovely fireplace stove Comfort  stove that says here on the front hasn't been used in a long time we already have some pictures over here as  well from the former owners I saw her picture   somewhere else throughout the castle as well  I'm gonna try to find it somewhere in this video   and we have another picture of a lady over  here see if I can focus on that you can see her   beautiful wow and the deer carving as well here on  the wall with a depiction of the castle over here just wonderful and also have a  look at this beautiful clock face   that we have over here carvings all over  it every single number and plated with gold okay I think I spend enough time showing this  room let's now go further throughout this place this beautiful door some rooms might be in a  bit worse State maybe a bit overthrown like   this one this used to be a bedroom most  likely of a child but I'm not 100 sure we   can see some dolls and some toys here yeah  we can safely assume that this used to be   a bedroom of a child and look where these children  slept underneath these beautiful paintings   I see some clothing over here at the back the  cabinets and these are some ladies clothing   as you can see just wonderful  definitely of a younger child and most likely the parents hang  up all these artworks in our room foreign some writing here are some more pictures  some more formal pictures of the castle here we can see it from a distance wow that's  just lovely these are postcards of the castle   faxing machine so it has been  used in the modern times as well   and one way you can see that the castle is  very old if everything like electricity has   been added on later you can see the cables  they are running around the door frame   electricity doesn't function anymore  but everything has been added on later   oh yes here we see the lady that we just saw  on the picture I believe wow she looks fabulous more a lot of artwork here on the wall okay it's a toilet room that I'm not  gonna show in detail for you all   and then we go to this room here  at the end and this used to be   another bedroom as you can see wow wow  this immediately catches my attention   look at these statues these carvings of  these babies made on the frame of the bed amazing and they're even over  here on top of the cabinet I'm literally gonna go through this place   for a very very long time presumably an hour or  more so be prepared we're gonna go on an adventure   here's the fireplace for this room and this room  was multi-purpose it also was used as a bureau   so maybe one of the older people that lived in  this place use this room to conduct some work lots of pictures left here as  well classes of the former person even a picture of a lady another young man them on a vacation on the beach there's a cola picture sitting outside on a bench and this is a photo  album everybody oh wow isn't that just wonderful   here's the Gate of the castle the front  gate that we came into this morning family pictures vacation pictures here's the same  lady that we just saw on the picture in the room oh and this is the courtyard of the  castle that I'm going to show you later wow wow fascinating oh this is the picture  that we just saw a picture of the lady study room with a former owner could conduct his  work and then we have these beautiful upholstery   chairs here in the corner of the room now we  can walk from the dining room straight through   that drawer because that's going to lead us into  the courtyard the courtyard has been constructed   in the 1600s when it got taken over by the 19th  owner of this place then they decided to rebuild   the castle make a courtyard and you can also  see up there we have some storage for the wine   production that later happened in this place let  me show you the support chart in a bit more detail oh God oh enormous this place is   just crazy you could just sit outside  enjoy the nice breeze here in Italy even at a well in the middle of the courtyard here  I can can't unfortunately look into it skilled up   by this tire and as you can see they are trying  renovate this place that plays scaffolding all   around it in an attempt to yeah and do what  already has been happening nature taking over I unfortunately think that this place and  its state right now is almost not savable I   think in the 16 1700s when labor was sheep  then this place could be easily restored   now when work is so expensive almost undoable  there's even no window in there anymore at the top that's so sad to think about  that this place will slowly   similar part and turn into a big pile  of rubble of the next hundreds of years it was the entrance Door of the place grand  entrance where the people came inside of the   castle but now it's time first go into the  basement because that's where the company   was that's what wine production happened and  there are also some other interesting parts that   I have to show you about this basement well the  stairway is very difficult to walk on I must say okay storage room you're ending up in oh yes these are  the wine holding tanks they are numbered 39 38 37.   oh wow we have a calendar over here from the  Year 2006 I didn't know yet when this place   got abandoned but now I have some sort of a clue  a reference they are actually very modern tanks   so they produced wine in here for a very long time wow look at this this is just fascinating Rose and  Rose of wine things all throughout this basement they're most likely all empty let's open one  up Peak inside there's nothing in there anymore beautiful to see every single piece of equipment  that was used for producing the wine is still in   here all the hoses all the Jacks lamps cables  they left everything behind pretty fast though   private it says then I'm going to deliver  inside and it's just this General storage area wow there's nothing anymore oh what a place but we  can still go lower into the basement down the   stairway oh here on the wall so we can see some  pictures of how it looked like when this place   was in operation fascinating and these are  the grape fields surrounding the castle up   there we can even see the castle on top of the  mountain so all the graves would be collected   and brought to the castle okay we're now going  to end up in the lowest floor of this place   on the go to the left here these are a bit more  ancient parts of the castle I even read online   that there used to be sort of a prison in this  basement so we're gonna try to find it look at   the thousands of bottles some pain and wine they  produced a very variety of different types of wine so they have lots of different brands that  they produced maybe in prisoners over here this looks like some sort of prison think  what we are seeing in is the prison cell okay oh I've never seen a prison inside  of an abandoned castle [Applause] so many artifacts left behind most likely some full bottles of  wine yeah they still have contents hundreds of bottles of unsold wine Once Upon  a Time the guard boxes were around these but   over the years they have deteriorated  these ones haven't even been labeled yet   they are completely filled with wine I actually  would have loved to taste one of these wines   unfortunately as my Explorer art says  never take anything from an abandoned place Bill engagement in the wall okay let's go to the right  let's see what's on that side as you can see the electricity still functions in  this place it's turned on even you can see the two   lights over here but on this panel it's all turned  off you can see the cope wraps right next to it over here we have another part of the  storage area for all the wines let's   make our way back up the stairway let's  film the remainder of this place foreign got constructed in the early 10th Century it was  only a fraction of the size what it is right now   over its 1000 year history the castle was  remodeled and parts added left and right [Music]   It is believed that it has been  remodeled at least 15 times a magnificent display of medieval architecture   the building Rises five levels  around the central Courtyard   its high walls protected from attacks on the  outside while keeping life Pleasant on the inside every single room rules uniquely decorated   and in total the entire Place  consists of more than 40 rooms [Music] the castle is a true Masterpiece of Italian  architecture and Design [Applause] [Music]   in this documentary we will also discover that   there are multiple hidden  tunnels beneath the castle in a more early and violent  years of its existence the   tunnels probably served as Escape Routes [Music] I just came out of the basement back into  the courtyard and I literally smelled the   ring that's such a nice smell and this is  a very rare occasion for Italy because it   doesn't rain that much over here wow the  rain dripping on the plans in here the smell   I can already feel that the next part of this  video is gonna be incredible so let's waste   no more time right in front of me here is to my  opinion the most beautiful part and beautiful room   of this entire Castle oh this is the main part  the living part of this place let's go in there   this room has been constructed together with  the courtyard in the 1600s the medieval room   with the Arches the pillars and everything  you would expect from a room like this wonderful I love it that there is  literally no electricity in this   place the only thing you have is these  chandeliers you think there are about 30   candle holders on there and we have four  of these chandelias throughout the room   and on these Channel years there will be 30  candles or 120 in total imagine how that must have   been like but back in that time period sitting in  a room like this in the evening enjoying yourself   with a cup of coffee there's also always something  that I like to do when I'm exploring these places   just relive the memories of somebody sitting there  drinking a cup of coffee in front of the fireplace   it's a very nice setup here we've got some  upholstery chests around the coffee table   this nice little rock on there beautiful colors  and then we have a service trolley to the side this fireplace is literally enormous 400 years  old like I told you before and you can see how   enormous it is from the blocks of wood that had to  be placed inside of it they're still in there some   blocks of food that have never been let up peacock  feathers above it a very nice touch because   this Castle is totally surrounded with peacocks  everywhere there's like the icon of this Castle oh   this is very sad to see we've got this wonderful  Play-Doh on the floor shattered in pieces are right next to it and knight's armor first  Knight's armor ever that I've seen on this   channel I've seen gloves I've seen other things  of a night armor like a helmet but here I see   a full night armored and unfortunately without  the helmet but still a very nice piece to find look at the meticulous design that's on here  we see a Knight riding a horse on a Battlefield   for slaying a dragon down below there wow it must  have been very difficult to battle with such an   armor that's very heavy very a lot of strain on  the body I would not want to do it definitely not   and on this side of the room we  have the spears from the battlefield   presumably of a four to sixteen hundreds these  were used to conquer lands and Conquer castles   they might have had blood on them that has  been washed off and displayed over here   it's a very scary thought actually and this wall we can see all the diplomas former  owners of this place achieved throughout their   lifetime fascinating to see see that this  is diploma for doctorate of Giorgio I'm not   going to go too close on that one because  you can most definitely reveal the location   from that piece wonderful even a  bottle of frizzy wine left here and then right in front of me  we have the chest set up so the   owners of this place would play  some chess back in the evening   around this chest table and got a candle  on there that they could carry around I have these upholstery  chairs that we have around it and then more Spears on the wall from the  battles that have been conquered over the years this is such an enormous Room everybody wow the  ceilings are at least four or five meters high   four pillars in the middle of it excuse me three  pillars this is one of the largest rooms that I've   ever been in inside of a castle fascinating  but more than a thousand years of History   this place has and here we can look outside  through the beautiful backyard of this place   back in the time these few used to be wine  Fields but later on they have been converted   they have been taken over back by Nature such a nice view oh wow and here on a wall  we've got an ancient sword   this has most definitely not been used in a battle  it's just too big piece it's just an art piece see what we got more on this side a map of the castle oh we are currently in this room and we  still have one two three four five six   seven rooms to cover before we are done with the  downstairs floors that's how big this Castle is and some more things to decide one last  overview of this meticulously beautiful room   and then we will move on  further to the other rooms and now welcome you all into the Leisure room  of this castle where games would be played where   kunyak would be drunk and where these people  just have a good time you can also call this   the man cave this is such a wonderful Room  everybody oh am I far here in front of me   the biggest Billiards stable that I've ever seen  I saw another one in an abandoned castle that was   almost as big as this one I will link it up here  in the annotations but this one is just massive   and for hundreds of years in the past people  used to play around this table and have a   good time you can literally still see them  standing over there playing a game of Billiards fascinating I love the wood that has  been used to construct this table   it has four pillars down below there  look at it and close the detail it's got a lovely painting one of  the former owners here on the wall Italian man with the mustache and lovely artwork actions of peasants Italian peasants back in the  day have a good dinner in front of the fireplace typical Italian town Italy is such a wonderful country with deep  history and I just I totally fell in love with it   first time I came over here  to explore these places   behind this couch we have the counter  for the score that the people achieved   with their game okay this moves from the  wall so I'm not gonna go and touch it anymore all the cues are stored in here nice little display yeah let's play something up here now we have this lovely  upholstery chest underneath there and of course not to forget  in this room there was also   a fireplace to give it some character  and Light into the light up the room are these candle holders here in front  no they are not candle holders excuse me and now we have something else here on the wall  these look like scripts this one says 1300 to 38.   it's definitely it's just a picture but they  look like scripts from back in that time period they were all displayed here on the walls ah this is a booklet that's  filled with the names of wine Blanco okay and here are prices for wines   that's so interesting and even a doodle  of somebody drinking a bottle of wine more scripts and then when you were done playing  your pool game you could look out of the window   and then from the letter room we walk straight  into the next dining room the second dining   room and this is actually the day-to-day  dining room that they used most likely   so let's have a look at it the way I can tell if this is the day-to-day  dining room is that it is not designed on   the ceiling and owners of a castle would most  likely always put their guests the most fancy   rooms they possessed wonderful table still made  after all those years plates are still on there   you can see it has been collecting dust overdose  yes wow some upholstery chests here in a corner   lovely yellow and then we have the Colosseum  hanging on the pride is possession of Rome and this lovely cabinet right next to it  you can see that there are some seashells   carved into this one there's actually a  very nice touch that they put into this one   you can see the exposed wood and the  symmetry of the wood and this piece as well it was fascinating see if there's  anything left now it's just some   random things in the cabinet oh there's  also a Christmas tree in this room   what's that doing there maybe this place  got abandoned around Christmas time and   this is one of those trees where there's  like this snowy powder on top of there a picture of Another Castle oh I love  this corner piece corner display table lots of man hours have been put  into making this one as well wonderful wonderful everybody and every single room of  course looks over the courtyard   would be such a nice piece  sitting here looking outside   oh there are some other chess pieces from  the chessboard that we saw over there [Music]   okay and now you're all going to be blown  away it's now time for the next part of   the castle and that's this lovely  dining room again and towards the   dining room in this place they seem  to have switched dining rooms a lot   maybe one for breakfast maybe one for  dinner maybe one for supper who knows   this is one of the most beautiful rooms in this  place and I'm gonna show you why I love it so much first and foremost it starts with this corner  this one has just character a sofa with another   small one right next to there and a stove in  the corner that's completely burned over the   years but what catches my attention the most in  this room this picture that we have over here   two women sitting together and a  young boy is playing violin for them   and as an exact representation of  this corner this picture is made here wonderful this former inhabitants of this place I was also looking at the stove and I  was wondering why it was burned like that   see there are some ashes down here somebody lit  up a fire in between here and it's red over there chimney leading out of the castle and now we have this lovely wall clock [Applause] with the clock face still present in there I always have to look in every single cabinet  to see if we can find any clues by the former   inhabitants lovely crowd molding above  the doorway leading into the other room and then we have a collection of  seashells over here on the display table is most likely from a very big muscle oh look at this copper plate a very big clam down here this is most likely I saw a tusk you can see all  the sun setting in the background a wonderful   picture of this place and then of course we are  in Italy we always have to look at the ceilings   in these places you can see there are thousands  of stars displayed on the ceiling of this room now the stats around there and then we  have the dining table right in front of   us here and as you can see there are six  chairs around this table and that tells us   something about the size of this family so  Carlos the last owner of this place and the   head of the family to guide her with his wife  Lily and his children used to dine over here I've seen a castle in Italy with about one with  about a very big dining table at about 20 chairs   and then that castle left way more people the  grandfather lived there and some relatives and   some family members all used to live there but  it seems like over here only a small family used   to reside foreign lovely mirror above there  some light fixtures and again you can see   that it all has been added on later the cables  are running everywhere throughout the castle rock collection they seem to  have had something with seashells   you can seem to see them all throughout this place a lovely cabinet with some artworks above there an angel falling from heaven  and landed there on this cabinet put some more artifacts in  here a little laser pointer stamps from this place date stamps and it's locked  on 1969. what did I fell something on the ground   let's put it back nicely some glasses that will  be served with drinks to the casts of this place   and over here we got another  collection of rocks and seashells we saw some fascinating pieces they're probably also very expensive I don't know  much about these things but I assume that they are   very expensive this is a doorway that leads to  the Courtyard so it could have been opened up   and you could walk straight into the courtyard  let's see if that's still possible nowadays [Music]   to be locked right now to pull this lever down  no it doesn't want to open anymore unfortunately and let's go further to this side of the  room while we have another display cabinet   with a doll of a child above here oh this is a  plastic doll I thought it was a porcelain doll magnificent display cabinet underneath there sure of a man here as well let the  lean description on there from 1965. some other artifacts as well this  cabinet some jerks and some other stuff lovely open fireplace right next to it here Grand the great designs coming  back everywhere in this place wonderful holy water from Honduras and another wall clock here to the side oh and  here the peacock design comes back so peacocks   had something to do with this Castle maybe  they have been here for all this time you   can see above there we can also see the peacock  design in the clock face carved out in Copper holding oh this this statue has  broken it's unfortunate but it   seems to be some sort of a worker  there are some shovels down there can we see these armored ladies Fighters soldiers they actually look quite sexy I must say this looks like a vanity with a mirror above the science of the crown and this household  had also something to do with war you can see   it all throughout it has been involved in war  over the last 1 000 years that this place has   been has been built and has been here you  can see this man wearing an army uniform   it seems like an Italian army uniform  here is an older picture of a soldier Carlos meeting meeting with  some fellow businessmen a wonderful designed cabinet display  table excuse me over here as well this seems to be like an engagement and  a wall with wooden branches in there some sort of an art displayment   with the sofa down below you could just  relax here at night and enjoy yourself one last overview of this entire room and by far  one of the most fascinating rooms in this Grand   castle and that leads us into the next part  of this Castle excited to show you this one   welcome inside oh the first thing that I'm  gonna get you to have a look at is the ceiling   again I can't stop looking at the  ceilings here in Italy and this one   has also the initials on the family the  family on there the grapes and the music   and all the things that this family stands  for even a swan that's down on the pond with a lovely chandelier hanging  here in the middle of the room   giving its character giving it love a picture of a former inhabitant also  left here and a mirror above there an artwork most likely made by one  of the inhabitants of this place   looks like a self-made artwork and this  is diploma from 1934 and it's even written   in my language I'll remain available World  Exposition it says on there and it's foreign and my own country he got this diploma  a wonderful stove right next to it love the White Tile to the side of it Castel Monte eating out Castle it's a chimney if  I could ever explore a castle the   size of this one yeah then I have to  make a whole series about this place right in front of the Sierra we have  another grand mirror wonderful displayment beautiful gold plating to the sides when  here are the smoking pipes of Mr Carlos   wow you could have multiple smoking  cracks standing upright and here like this we'll use the smoke a lot more back in  that time I think these are lighting rods   for the smoking pipes special piece of furniture  only for smoking foreign depicted over here then a rocking chair right  in front of it I love this chassis long that   we have over here wow such a nice piece I have  to lay down in it and test it out for you all so this was just a resting place a resting couch  a chest alone actually where people could take a   nap read a book and they would just it's actually  a very comfortable chair to be in and yeah I can   see myself relaxing in this one just winding down  from the day having a nice glass of drink next to   me and just sipping away and dreaming about big  things I didn't show you these pictures that we   have here above the Chasse long this lovely girl  and this drawing to decide it's also very nice and we have another one of these women and  this lovely couple Lamppost right next to it everything in a castle like this has been thought   about the curtains the ceiling the  wallpaper every single detail counts   and that takes us into another room and this  one is a heaven bedroom as I like to call it   there's a single bedroom presumably again of  a child that slept here and it used to be a   curtain that draped down over the bed giving that  impression of a heaven bed that you can rise up love the style of this bedroom again a wonderful ceiling flowers  birds and everything is on there and this is most likely a girl's bedroom  we have an enormously beautiful vanity   to this side where she could make  herself beautiful in the morning   everywhere throughout this place there are  these plastic plastic fruits left behind   I don't know why they are all here but plastic  fruits everywhere is this another vanity yes it is   oh this is in the same style as the cabinet  that we have over on the other side of the room a marble top some rocks in here you have seen the Rocks  all throughout this place and of course   Italy was and still is very religious we see  religious symbols at like the holy water and   these displayments of Jesus Christ and Maria  all throughout the castle even above the bed wonderful BET right here in front of us still made  are all those yes it's sort of a gold orange bed   cover I really like it I would have loved to be a  child in a house like this in a castle like this   it must have been wonderful to live here and if  all the amenities that you could ever dream of not a wonderful vanity carvings in there some bottles of perfume left  behind eau de toilette from Paris still smell it until here  upholstery chairs everywhere oh this cabinet is also quite fascinating sheep's wool sheeps will rock we have over here Francesco Rosa Spina 1800s says on this paper okay and I see that there is  another doorway right behind here   the wallpaper just flows through over this doorway  we can open it up open it goes inwards [Music] and   that reveals the bathroom of this place and also  some decorative items definitely from Christmas   time we already saw a Christmas tree that's  this picture right behind here very colorful   tree somewhere okay peacock feather again on the  floor and we're now ending up in the bathroom   the shower and cavement with a former owner  that lived here could take a showers right   from his room of our room and then we have  the toilet Arrangement where the toilets   and again another vanity how many  vanities can you have in one room   then of course fish could brush her teeth  to her makeup must have been wonderful   and you you can look out Over  The Gardens of this Castle still raining outside I can literally keep filming this place  I can literally keep filming this place   forever there are so many things to look at   and I don't want to stop filming it I want to  keep looking at all these things and go through it   I think I'm gonna sleep here tonight  and just film it in the morning again let me show you the ceiling one  more time but then in Greater detail but luckily we are still not done yet we still  have a few rooms to cover and let's waste no   more time let's go in them so excited to show  you the remainder of this place foreign area wonderful dining table here in the middle but what  catches your attention when you get into this room   is the ceiling just have a look at the artworks  that have been put on here by the artist in 1860   it most likely took him years to complete this and  have a look at it it's sort of a pattern winter   time here in front of us Autumn time yes this  these are the seasons displayed on the ceiling   this is summertime you have over here and then to  end off of course we have also sprained to this   side wow that's totally lovely and I can see some  other things in the ceiling as well for example   the castle depicted over here the corner of the  room these angels drawing a castle or a palace we have another depiction of the castle oh  they are also they also rotate with the seasons   Castle on every single season Angels playing music and here's the castle in another season   just amazing person that created  this was truly a master of Art let's go through this room and let's see  what more we can discover inside of it   and we have these waivers over here as  well maybe for the servants to cool down   the occupants of this Castle Carlos and his family oh this is a French poet okay an enormous Chinese Min vase   down there in a wooden lock why is  this wooden log here I have no clue fortunately this place has also been involved in  war times we can see here three Italian soldiers   most likely in World War II and they were aligned  with the Nazis I'm not gonna judge them it's   just a picture but that's reality everybody  those things also happen in these castles lovely candle over here on  top fireplace [Applause]   we've got the fireplace itself a  wonderful piece of art in front of it nice manner on this one as well the fireplace here in the corner of the  room is only a triple stacked fireplace   and like the other one that's dead fifth times  five stacks of chimneys on top of each other   they all end up in the same chimney  another diploma over here as well invention or that's invention in Italy but  I'm not sure what it fully reads it's from   1923 and it's from Romano Romano may  be also an inhabitant of this place more artworks All Above here got this picture  these two children together with their horses what is this court here that's no purpose I think it's amazing and then we have this cabinet picture  of a man inside this was maybe kanosh himself it even has this stamp at the  bottom that makes it legitimate I'm not a picture as well and this one very interesting to find so this was another  dining area or another sitting area to have   some drinks most likely big Library big  boot shelf here to the right as well   oh different types of marine nuts are displayed  in here of course numerous encyclopedias   book of the Year 1963 1962 dictionary  World languages oh that's crazy let's close this up see what we have down  below here even more books but different topics   Italian culture I love also the design in this bookcase Alpine mountain range and one last time this  very beautiful ceiling going to show you this   those seasons on there just blow my mind  such an awesome idea to put on a ceiling and I believe right next to me here we have  another bedroom that I have to show you oh a teddy bear one of the children some booklets oh and this is a  picture from the outside of the castle   look at that look what I found  everybody this is totally amazing this is the dining hall Castle the hall that we  first entered into with all the candle lights   wow this is the courtyard right above  there that's a fascinating piece to find and then we have a double bedroom in here  with numerous documents it's played on the bed it is it's a war helmet   and some designs of the castle from the  arches and the construction of this place a box for chocolates look at this this is just  meticulous we have this upholstery box and it's   just for fine chocolates and it's for Maria and  for the 25th of December 1914 so this was most   likely a Christmas present for somebody back in  that time period wow can you imagine how much work   it must have been to make this box and  then you just fill it up chocolates more designs of the castle if you want you can reconstruct this  place from the designs that are here   scripts and everything is  on top of this bathroom oh I'm not sure how you call this this is  also a piece from Christmas time we call   the castle and Dutch but I'm not sure about the  English name the English Persona pronunciation   so this place definitely got abandoned around  Christmas time and that's a very sad reality triple quadruple stack stove right in front  of me here and that ends off this bedroom maybe I'll find some more things over  here let me just look a little bit further some more designs of the crown molding that  has been placed into this Castle [Applause]   statues and everything okay see that there's one  more room down here where does this end up in   foreign storage rooms at the end of  the castle more Christmas decoration   more wrapping paper and all kinds of things  are here a Christmas store right over there we have one last small part of this Castle  to cover that's this side of the courtyard   there are a few rooms here and of course we're  gonna go to the Tower of this place let's go   and as you can see again I've not shown this in  full the construction is happening here I want   to show you also a bit more about this Courtyard  the clock phase over here has probably been here   hours hours of departure it's been there for a  long time it's most likely from a train company   Lantern here in the middle of the courtyard and  I'll show you the entrance a bit more in detail   before they even had a whole Tree on that side to  hang up your clothing here in the entrance hall wow lovely to see okay it hasn't has luckily stopped raining  oh I should say it has unfortunately   stopped raining now because I really loved it but   yeah we have to go out soon and then it's  nice but it's not raining anymore foreign s over here some general storage areas a castle  maybe for the workers got some wine up here   some other tools just a general selection of  storage you can see some sugar other stuff there oh and a very big pile of food right here  for all the fireplaces that were in this   Castle because of course there was no central  heating before the 1800s maybe even before the   1900s I'm not 100 sure but they needed a lot of  food to fuel all the fireplaces in this Castle   wow look at this fountain  that we have on this side I think they added on the faucet later at  first was just the head spouting out water then   this faucet has been added on at a later  date and it's fully made out of Marvel   wow this is a lovely piece oh I know  we have some toilets over here as well okay even some shampoos and  everything still left in here and I think this Courtyard and this castle and  late late 19th century was used as a venue for   the wine production and to Showcase their  products to uh yeah interested buyers most   definitely okay and then we have this stairway  that's gonna take us up to the other floors   if one other part here that's this oh yes we  have not seen a kitchen yet in this place and   most likely the kitchen is gonna be  over here this is where the servants   used to work lots of junk and trash as  you can see a radio some other things okay what do we have over here an  accountancy desk and some film roll as well   it's very interesting nothing  of interest is on there what kind of room do we have here this seems very interesting okay this goes down all the way but the  stairway is very sketchy very very sketchy   oh and we end up at a front porch at  a porch where you could go out of the   castle maybe a secret exit way out of this  place why we even have some barrels in here from wine production barrels and  this leads into another basement   wow the tunnel system underneath this  Castle is incredible we already saw   the basement itself and all the wine  production and then we still have this   basement where mobile maybe the most  expensive wines this Castle Westward we even have a few bottles of wine left behind  here and touched and there are numerous spiders   all over the wall in the air luckily  I'm not scared of spiders but they   are literally hundreds nobody these aren't  spiders oh oh my God it shouldn't Ride On Me I think there are jumping spiders I feel it okay  I'm gonna go out of this basement even though I'm   not scared of spiders they scare me a little  bit I must say we're back in the servants room   I think the kitchen is on that side let's have  a look I can see some fridges some other things   oh no this was just a laundry room oh down  below here is the kitchen but first let's   have a look at this room all the laundry is  still left here and even all the fridge magnets   the places that these people have traveled to  New York Lake Powell all in the United States and then we end up over here in the kitchen of  the place a very ordinary kitchen as you can see   and most likely the servants would be working in  here preparing meals for the owners of the castle   wow everything is still in here  untouched like the data left it behind even of course because we are in Italy there is a   pizza oven in this kitchen I wouldn't  have expected anything else [Music] I just skipped that door to the right there and  it was a bad choice because I already suspected   it there is a basement in here as well so are  we already going down the third basement in   this place oh yes I just saw this little window  here and that leads into yet another basement   of this Castle oh interesting very small one over  here as well oh more stairways leading down this   is like a labyrinth going through here and there  again all the spiders are on the walls it's just oh there's a bat this goes on and on underneath the  castle where am I gonna Bend open not a little dungeon room filled  with these types of spiders might these have been a prison seems really rusted okay okay now I can't open it up unfortunately  but wow what an adventure   oh my God this is a tunnel  system underneath the castle very fascinating oh my God there's a severed animal   squirrel I think here on the floor  not gonna go too in detail foreign and there are more tunnels underneath here even of course we are gonna check  this out if we can of course this hasn't been opened in a very long time that was a bit scary my camera just fell my  light the battery popped out of it I had no light   anymore I had to crawl like this because of course  the basement was open okay let's try to open it up   it hasn't been opened very very long time and then  we're gonna go inside see what it has to be old I'm crazy for doing these  things I'm literally crazy   but what I love to do most likely  it's going to be a dead end no it isn't it's not a turtle system underneath the castle wow it's just for plumbing unfortunately but it could have been something else so  I never leave a chance okay let's go back   oh what an adventure everybody oh there's so many  animals in here let's go back out of this basement   because I can I think I can go in here for days  and not find the entrance for an exit anymore okay I'm pretty tired of this endeavor but  let's go further it started raining again and now it's time to go to the  upper floors of this place foreign wow it's an enormous attic spanning  up more than 10 meters in front of me unbelievable some sort of storage area for the wine  production Maybe and some other General   stuff that was used throughout the castle  I see a doorway over there [Applause] at least you can do some sort of a storage area   oh my God look at this room with the ceiling  that's just amazing it looks like a chapel oh isn't even some booklets in here 1940 it said last few rooms in here see what's at the end here interesting we have some wheat grinding  machines here okay oh and some boxes some crates   or juice for wine as you can see with some  wine bottles in here all opened wine bottles and then the last room of this attic there's one more spiraling staircase right  here in front of me and that's gonna take us   up to the tower of the castle it's gonna be a  long walk because this Tower is very high okay let's go up and up and up  until we can't go up anymore a little doorway here it's push that open   let's go further oh my God I think I have  to speed this board up [Applause] [Music]   okay everybody we arrived at  the top of the castle foreign and unfortunately it's raining so if you  isn't as nice as normal but let me show you   this masterpiece wow I think it's actually still  quite nice you can Overlook the whole valley   oh this is beautiful [Music]   ah let me sit down and tell you that I'm just  very happy but also a little bit exhausted   this was an enormous castle and this video  I know was very long but it was well worth   it every single room had very important
