Inside the 700-Year-Old Castle of a Solitary Man



Gear up with Bros of Decay! 🌟 Explore our brand-new merch and dive into our website ► www.brosofdecay.com 👕✨

A man lived here alone for decades, surrounded by 700 years of noble history. 🏰 Helmuth’s life was defined by order and solitude, but his story is just the final layer of a much older legacy. Join us as we step through the dining room doors and travel back seven centuries.

About This Discovery
In this episode, we explore Helmuts Castle, a place where time has stood still. While the world outside changed, Helmuth kept his routines within these stone walls. But as we move deeper into the castle, the 20th century fades away, revealing the grand traditions of the noble families who managed these lands for nearly a millennium.

At Bros of Decay, we believe the true stories of the past are more fascinating than any ghost story. From ancestral portraits to 700-year-old wood carvings, we’re peeling back the layers of time to show you what life was really like inside these walls.

In this video, we’ll see:

Helmuth’s Private World: The personal belongings of a man who valued solitude.

The Great Dining Hall: A transition from a personal home to a noble fortress.

700 Years of Architecture: How stone and wood have preserved 1,000 years of history.

The Ancestors: The faces of the noble family who built this legacy.

  8. Guys…what is hapening to you?
    The oldest vídeos from Bros… you were not ironic.
    It is not the first time, I make this kind of comment
    I know my opiniom doesn't matter but, it is not polite you enter inside the house of someone who is not among us anymore.
    And say ,the vathroom never was washed, was cleaned!
    You should have more respect for the history for the places you are getting in.
    In another vudeo you both laughing and saying the decoration of the house was "tacky".
    Well my comment will not be good to read, but it is what I think. I'm sorry.

  9. It would be cool is if you guys were able to buy 1 abandoned castle at a time and renovate it to how it was in whatever millennium/century it was created. And turn them into historical hotels. So people around the world can see the beauty in person of what centuries of history look like.
