Bought in October 2020 by Samuel Roger (a French Art Dealer) and his wife, Catherine, the Château de Marcellus has never been open to the public, before its acquisition by this charming couple.
They have a huge project of restoration for this 18th century castle, located in South West of France, not far from Bordeaux, in Lot-et-Garonne department.
In this episode you will discover the story and interiors of the chateau, through the eyes of its owner, Samuel Roger.

Thanks for watching!
Olivier.
C'est une maison étonnante, Monsieur Roger. On voit rarement un site si intact. Il est heureux qu'il soit maintenant sous la garde de personnes comme vous et votre femme. Vous avez une telle appréciation de son importance et de son histoire. Merci de l'avoir partagé avec nous.
Fabulous with original rooms.
What a tour! I love the color pallet of the interior of the Chateau. What a treat to see the almost untouched kitchen. How rare. Lost in time. What a beautiful job you are doing to restore it. Magnifique!
Fascinating. One of the most thorough chateau tours I’ve seen. Many are just a tease; you show the structure, explain materials, and point out the development. Thank you.
Thank you. Glad you appreciated this video.

Merci monsieur Roger! What a marvelous chateaux. I wish you and your wife many happy years living there.
La cuisine m’impressionne particulièrement.Merci pour cette superbe visite .
C'est vraiment fantastique ce château . Merci pour la visite rare des combles , des cuisines et autres lieux secrets . Bravo pour le très bon commentaire . Félicitation pour ce merveilleux achat et l'amour de ce château avec son histoire . On sent la passion des propriétaires . J'adore le petit chien qui se promène tranquillement partout dans ce lieu de rêve . Très très beau château !
Superb!! Your tour was most informative and the beauty and style of the chateau is astonishing. How fortunate you and your wife are to have it as your home and how fortunate is the chateau and its previous owners to have you recall it to life with such taste and respect !!
A very interesting tour of this chateau. Love the pride shown by the owner Samuel Roger. Would love to see future updates on the renovations.
What a gorgeous chateau, they have done a wonderful job of bringing it back to life!
MAGNIFIQUE!!! SOUTIENDS A VOUS POUR LA PRESERVATION DE NOTRE PATRIMOINE SI RICHE ET SI BEAUX
Extraordinaire château et superbe visite offerte par le propriétaire qui est aussi très clairement un grand connaisseur de ce type d'architecture. Merci beaucoup.
Merci pour votre commentaire. Effectivement, Samuel Roger dirige une entreprise qui vend des cheminées anciennes et ornements de jardin, notamment. D'ailleurs il les expose dans le parc de son château :)
The tour of this beautiful chateau has certainly made my day. Please thank M. Roger for the interesting and informative tour of his beautiful home. With the amount of castles & chateaus that have been abandoned or simply left in a terrible state of disrepair, it is gratifying indeed to see the very lucky ones being rescued from a terrible fate by people that really care about them like M. Roger.
Thank you. Glad you appreciated this tour. I will definitely share your nice comment with Samuel Roger, next time I will see him :)
Приятно слушать французскую речь,даже если не все понимаешь,она как музыка!👍❤️
Thank you so very much for showing us your beautiful Chateau. I loved that you showed all the beautiful shiny parts along with the old kitchens and out-of-the-way places like the roof. Those are places you never usually get to view on these kinds of videos. Thank you!
Thank you Oliver,,, WOW! Absolutely stunning! I LOVE EVERYTHING! Thank you again for a fantastic vlog to share the history of France. I also appreciate the fact that you have adjusted the timing so you can read the subtitles better. God bless you,,, 😍😍😍
Thank you very much for your comment! I'm glad you enjoyed the video and I appreciate that you noticed the small changes I made. I'm listening to your feedback and trying to improve your viewing experience. :)

Thank You for your wonderful tour and explanation of the Chateau!
Thank you for an intresting veiw of your beautiful chateau !! 👍🏻🌟❤️🍀
Excellente présentation, d autant plus que vous ne l avez acquis que très récemment
Vraiment intéressant de voir une cuisine figée dans le temps, bravo de préserver ce patrimoine
Magnifique château 👍👍👍👍 j'ai adoré
Wonderful is right. We have spent many months in the Dordongne over the years and visited many chateaux. But this is one of the most beautiful and well preserved I have seen. Thank you for preserving and protecting this wonderful heritage. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for allowing us to tour your magnificent Chateau. The Grand Salon is beautifully pleasing to the eye. The Carrera mable fireplace is georgeous. The beautiful statuary throughout your home is beyond words. I have to admit seeing the original kitchen with the fireplace lit was such a treat. Many times I have wondered how they ever prepared those special dishes and what the kitchen would look like. Thanks again and wishing you and your wife many happy years at your lovely Chateau.
C'est vraiment incroyablement magnifique et magique.
Thank you so much for showing us your beautiful Chateaux, Monsieur Roger. There is so much history there. You have done the interiors very thoughtfully and tastefully. It is heartwarming when such a beautiful place comes back to life .I loved the rooftop balcony. It has vistas forever. I hope we shall see future developments of the castle grounds and 16th century restoration.
Amazing place! I imagine, the surroundings trees gone, and the views they hide.... Seeing the cellars makes you realize the amount of work ahead 😱 It would have been interesting to know, how much of the interiors, furniture, etc., was original to the house? I know, that often it will be sold off before the house is sold, and I am happy for you, that you where given a chance to buy some pieces, like that incredible painting 😍😍😍 Your wife is certainly very talented and skilled with a sewing machine!!
Tres magnifique. As my French is limited will leave it there. Wonderful to see these chateaux that are owned by the French. I have really enjoyed watching these programs and have a new appreciation for the history of France and these magnificent buildings
That was one of the best video tours that I have seen on KZhead. Thanks for the trip back in time. Wishing you the best in your efforts to restore the chateau to its glory.
Great tour luv the place Soo beautiful and elegant keep up the work and looking forward to the next your Best wishes to you all Thanks

Wow so beautiful! Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for a tres belle visite !
dès le départ, j’ai trouvé ce château magnifique … mais, vous aviez gardé son secret pour la fin … Henri IV, rien que le Roi de France et de Navarre … j’en ai pleuré … bonne restauration, bon courage ! que ce château retrouve sa splendeur d’origine … il a eu la chance de tomber sur les bonnes personnes …
Beautiful thanks for sharing, Yvonne from Australia

magnifique partage pour ce domaine d'exception et la chance que vous avez d'y séjourner ! merci Monsieur .
It's very interesting tour. Thank you for sharing about this unique castle 🏰
Amazing castle everything and the staircase superb I love that they have original paintings etc
C' est Magnifique. I have a few French Huguenot ancestors. Beautiful elegante, wonderful rich decor, with great views of landscape. Merci for a lovely architectural tour. Joan(California)
Beautiful! Thank you for sharing with us the public!
Wonderful tour. The place is romantic. As from a novel you read in bed. Turn a corner, open a door and find old treasures and forgotten beautiful vistas from long ago.
Merci pour cette intéressante visite de ce lieux historique,qui grâce à des amoureux de châteaux donnent vie et conservent notre beau patrimoine.
Genius construction. It could be Seen that Functionality for comfort and Building safety was a major Element of construction. In other castles allways the design stays in Front and the use in back. When you can have 50 Butlers no Problem, but if you can not afford or you dont want to have too much people in your house being Not your family then this design is a very good example for a modern Building as well
So beautiful and such a joy! Thank you for sharing it with us! Merci.
Superb with Monsieur Roger showing lot`s of Flare
Magnifique.merci beaucoup de Dallas.
Well they certainly sold it to the right person you certainly know your architecture and history - best wishes
A lovely tour, thank you for sharing this most unique castle.
Oh I love this chateau. Very special. A real treat to be able to tour it. Excellent host. Thank you.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us
Merci!!
Thank you for watching!
Very informative, informal but also intimate! Great host and a very good production. Nice to see behind the scenes look into the life of a Chateau.
Thank you for your comment. Glad you appreciated this video. And thank you also for your word about the production :)
Genial pour tourner un film d'epoque, surtout les cuisines et les alentours.
Stunning! However am I the only one who thinks it would be nice to clean the attic stairs and service areas. I think even those parts would be lovely cleaned up.
In a project of this scope, one has to prioritize. They'll get to it. This house once had a staff of 25 or more. People don't live that way any more.
@@cynthialambert9067 Rhetorical statement. 😉😂
Amazingly lovely. Thank you for a very detailed tour. I know you love it & will take very good care of it. Congratulations to you and your wife.
Merci. I never see Fr, chateau owners, but I guess you still exist.
Delightful tour!! So beautiful, historic, and amazing.
Beautiful
Such a beauty -
Lovely chateau, just lovely. Fascinating history, battements and kitchen. You are very lucky to live there.
Très beau château plein d’avenir grâce à vous. Quelle chance pour notre patrimoine. Au passage que de splendides sculptures partout : sans doute êtes-vous un collectionneur averti ? Merci de cette visite !
Effectivement, Samuel Roger possède une entreprise de ventes d'antiquités, de cheminées anciennes et d'ornements de jardin. Elle s'appelle Origines :)
Absolutely magnificent! Such history!
congratulations, really beautiful, thank you to show it
Thank you for showing us around your beautiful house. I love the history and the architecture. ❤
Amazing! I was a museum docent in an 1840’s kitchen in New Orleans, it was that kitchen! A potager, bread oven, roasting jack, all the stuff. Very easy to cook in once it’s explained how. But ours required years of scrounging to find the tools and restore the kitchens, to see it all still in place like from the last time it was used, that is astonishing. With the well and it’s hardware, gorgeous!
Beautiiful Chateau! Such fantastic structure! My niece married a Marcellus in the U.S, where I live. Perhaps at least maybe distantly, not sure, but they could be related to the sellers in some way? This is a lovely Chateau and think it is wonderful you have purchased it and just am excited to think how unique and exquistie this Chateau is and cetainly even more will become, given time. It already is a gem!
Merci pour la visite, c'est passionnant ! On ressent d'ici l'atmosphère de la cuisine et sa souillarde... Que de trésors !
This was a marvelous tour, so informative, beautiful, great tour guide/owner. Thank you so very much, pleased to see the chateau in such wonderful hands, you and your wife clearly love this place.
This is stunning. Gorgeous.
Wow, Beautiful. Thank you for sharing☺
Thank you for sharing a guided tour within your newly required home. I wanted to see much more! The best was your narrative history which made it very interesting.
Superb. Merci, Monsieur!
Very nice... But as a gardener I would be inclined to prune back that big tree, so close to the Chateau! Thanks for the in depth tour and great well deserved restoration.
Entre le budget pour l’achat et le budget Renovation ça a dû coûter deux bras !!!
Incredible!!! A real treat!
What a beautiful place to live.
