Château Keller, a neo-baroque jewel classified as a historic monument, inspires admiration despite over 20 years of abandonment. Its miraculous preservation is a poignant testament to its history.
Upon our arrival, we noticed we were not the only visitors; a photographer was capturing a wedding couple, adding a touch of romance to this place steeped in history. Despite this slight delay, the visit proved captivating, punctuated by unexpected discoveries such as archives and period magazines, silent witnesses to the castle’s glorious past.
One can only hope that this architectural gem continues to receive preservation worthy of its prestige, even in the absence of concrete plans for its protection and rehabilitation. However, it is hard not to feel some dismay at the lack of natural light that plunges the castle into semi-darkness, depriving visitors of a full and immersive experience.
