Storyline

To visit Guédelon is like a journey into history, because in the forest of Saint-Sauveur a castle will be built. Fifty crafts-workers are building a castle using XIIIth century techniques in the middle of the forest, in a natural site which provides them with every building material: water, stone, earth, sand and wood. In Guédelon, there is no excavator, no drill, no electricity an no internal combustion engine in use. Around 2025 they hope to finish this unbelievable project. Reinhard Kungel and his team have been in Guédelon since the very beginning.
