chateau des ancêtres
I had this place on my list since some time,
and finally something inside me told me "you have to go there...now!" -
It was a long and early drive, got up at 3:30 in the night and drove around 400 km to get to this beauty...
After crouching through the small cellar window it was simply stunning to see it really in the state i hoped.
Wonderful, impressive, what a beauty, i'm in love!

Beautiful shot, I love the colors and light, is there really abandoned castle in these days?
Sven Fennema  Thank you very much Monika!
Oh yes, there are some, sometimes they are really ugly, but sometimes they are true treasures!
Monika  ok I understand, where did you find this one?
Sven Fennema  Found this one randomly when i searched for potential locations for a little trip to eastern germany, never thought that it could be such a treasure :)
Had a visit to another wonderful one some weeks aso in Belgium, but sadly all pictures from there are rejected

You are showing another amazing place - I like your mix of abandoned places and ultra modern architecture in your portfolio :-)
