Château de Kerjean Brittany .

Hello Friends!

Today, I will show you a place I love in Brittany.

Le Chateau de Kerjean which was partly destroyed, when? At the French Revolution of course! The stones  have been sold . It dates back to the 16 Century.

We visited it during a summer stay in Brittany and it was fabulous to have a drink outside and look at these windows opening on the sky! It was a window with a view! View on the sky and changing all the time and full of mystery in a remote place among the forest and land.

The mysteries of Brittany !

For those of you who are celebrating Thanksgiving A very Happy Thanksgiving to you!!

It was the castle before the revolution 

 

Noel au Château!

 Today is a special day! 

.It’s Saint Catherine ‘s day, so it’s my day.  On Saint Catherine 25th of November the custom here is for the women who are not yet married on they 25 th birthday wear  and make a yellow and green hat 👒 on that day. This from the Middle Ages. Another custom is that you must plant on that day, trees…all will be well rooted !I am Catherine, but no more a Catherinette! 😂 

Not doing much today on my special day!

Hello Friends!

Yesterday we finally went to the chateau D’Argeronne which is an hotel ( chambres d’hôtes) wedding and seminars in an Orangery. A beautiful place but I forgot to take a picture. Instead of going to the sea because we did not know if it was going to snow.

A 17 th Century castle!

All the chateau’s  have a big land around there was a farm 

A pigeon house ( only for the upper class) and woods for hunting  with hounds.

This was the farming part

We had heating and wood fire inside

The beautiful stairs

I could not take many pictures of the artisans but the picture was hand made baby clothes in Toile de Jouy

It was very nice.

The entrance of the chateau

A grasshopper garden decoration as there was a  landscaper enterprise exhibition 

This is the guest house 

And the famous pigeon house! This one is still in a very good state.
 

Then my husband found some earrings and I had to choose a pair. It is made with peacock feathers and two different pheasants feathers 🪶 and I found a mohair and silk hand knitted scarf to match with my earrings . These people have cattle of Mohair goats 🐐 and do there own will.

There were only good quality gifts for Christmas and all was nice to look at!

So soft  warm and light!

I wish you a nice week!
