I wouldn't have read that whole rambling mess-of-a-timeline myself, except that it facinated me... finally, the rest of the story!
For the whole of my life I have watched that castle from the car window as my family passed it coming and going on every major holiday trip to my Grandparents house. When I was very young I realized that I could KNOW when I saw the castle exactly how many more hours it would be before I could get out of that darned car!
I was so terribly sad when I looked up the hill and saw that it had burned - and even though I was middle-aged and a married lady it was a shock to my childhood fantasies of "happily ever after". I remember wanting to cry.
I am very, very happy to see it brought to life. It has waited a LONG time to be loved.
The End.
Perhaps now they can call it "The ruin"...?
