RE: Castle Heeswijk

in Worldmappin10 months ago

Hi Martina! This is the most beautiful post I've read in a long time: perfect photos and beautiful writing, such a pleasure to see it through to the end. What a beautiful castle and I loved the internal tour, you portrayed it very well. How many luxuries everywhere, a lot of details and everything perfectly preserved. When I see these castles I can't imagine them full of people using things haha, in my mind castles are just museums and touching something would be a disaster for the order and harmony of each space. I was also surprised by the contrast between all the rooms and the kitchen that was hardly decorated: it seems that high society was not even interested in having their employees in a luxurious place, even though their entire house was. A bit selfish, if you ask me.

I hope everyone enjoyed this lovely walk, and I wonder if the children got bored. I have many nephews and they get a bit bored when there are only things to see and nothing to touch haha. I also hope that your mother-in-law enjoyed the walk and that her health improves. Greetings, have a good day ❤️!

Hello hello 🙂 First of all, I apologize for getting back to you after such a long time. I've been on vacation and it actually wasn't the best time ever, so I didn't manage to spend much time online...

Thanks a lot for your lovely comment. I am so happy that you liked my post.

Servants had it difficult at those times. They couldn't even use same halls and staircases. They had their own smaller ones somewhere where nobility couldn't see them. They had to appear invisible and do everything without disturbing their bosses.

I have a feeling that those kids don't have much focus, so they get bored all the time. Thank you for your kind wishes. We hope that she will be better soon! 🙂

Have a lovely day!
