I became completely curious when I first learned of this fascinating endeavor to build a new Medieval Gu\u00e9delon Castle in the town of Treigny, in Burgundy, France. The work was to simulate original Medieval construction methods. Even the workers must wear Medieval clothes to closely mimic how the labor was affected by all the details. The\u00a0 work was conceived in 1996 and began in 1998, when a French landowner, Michel Guyot , who happens to own a real St. Fargeau castle, wondered what if a new Medieval castle could be build from scratch the way castles were originally constructed.\u00a0 The project holds academic weight to give insight into Medieval Times. These BBC<\/a> and\u00a0 Kuriositas <\/a>links explain more about the project and show the progression from 2005 – 2008. Little known outside of France, the site welcomes visitors (who can wear modern clothing) and there will be plenty to see as the site’s completion isn’t anticipated until the 2020’s. In the meantime, this endeavor encompasses much art in the creative construction, the design, and the performance to compete the architecture and learn in the process about a past time and culture. Pretty fascinating!<\/p>\n
