Slu/Sal'

at the last FESTO event I took the chance to record a short raw video of castle Greziljono and surrounding. The castle and the surrounding property is full owned by Esperantists.

castle Greziljono (eo.wikipedia.org)

ĝp,

Thanks for the video. Nice place, nice castle and space around. I could imagine that a lot of staff is needed to maintain the property. Do all the people speak EO? Are there esperantists permanently living.

I only participated at the FESTO (JEFO) event. During that everybody of the Castle maintaining team (around 4 til 6) spoke Esperanto. I don't know who maintains the castle out of the Somera programo. At least at the period of the Somera programo esperanto speaking folk permanent living there. I heard that they have to change the maintain concept of the castle. Maybe getting member of some volounteering networks like WOOF ktp. If you have any ideas you could tell them by email or phone, too.

At the film only one part of four of the property can be seen. I missed to film an old gardening area, around 40 meters old railtrain track (without rail tracks, looks like an wilderness allee right now, but the typical railroad embankment can still be identified, probably some historical narrow-gauge tracks; I don't know), forest, and some small ponds and other surounding.

Btw. also excist a detail geographic map of that property. Maybe someones knows some film students who are interested using that property for film project. The castle is situated an 25 minutes walk to Baugé city village/centre which have typical nice and very charmful historical buildings of that area, too.
