Chateau Secession, France, April 2016

[tank2020]

After what had must of been a good 24 hours over 3 weeks scouring the internet I managed to track down this place, the moment I found it, a day of work ws booked and Le Shuttle reserved. I was a bit late on the tourist bus, and few of the amazing features had been lifted, but still a fantastic mooch.

There doesn't seem to be any history on the place, but from wandering around I would say the it wasn't just a residential property.



































Thanks for looking*

Nice one, some of the best I've seen from here.

Also kudos for being one of the few British explorers I've seen to actually spell the name correctly.

Chateau Secession was it's original given name by the finder, secession meaning to withdraw.

It was then turned into Chateau Sucession by subsequent European explorers, which means to follow on from.

When the tourbus of English explorers turned up it was furhter bastardised into Chateau Sucsession, which sounds like a terrible 1990s porn film title and isn't a word at all...
