Roman Empire. The cry of Gladiators to the pleasure of the evil principalities and the eye wonderings' of the kingdom. At the end of this age, we would have realized we were all equal before the pious creator of the heavens and earth.

Reference:


Anything that old has a story, has a history that should be known. Fancy furniture and a new coat of paint just cannot cover certain things.

The first question you should ask is why it is sold in the first place rather than being a heritage site, why is it on the open market and why so cheap.

My guess is that 'new books' have been written to change the narrative and cover up something in its past. If not white folks particularly Europeans are not in the habit of 'pimping' real historical stuff and Italy lives and breathes on its antiquity.

What history? Na you give the house the history? Even a house that was built y'day has history.

What are the certain things that fancy furniture and new coat of paint can't cover?

What's wrong in selling a property that old? Is it everything that is in heritage site? Is that the only castle that is a private residence in the world?

Aha! Is this an assumption or a well researched submission?

Italy? One of the oldest country (sic) on earth!?
Where did you get that from?
Egypt, Ethiopia, India, China... These are real ancient human societies (civilizations)...

And BTW, not even the era of Muhammad (of Islam) is any young as close to the age of this building, talk less of Christ who preceded Muhammad by over half-a-century!
At the bolded, half a millennium you mean?

Beautiful. Might be over priced at that price, but I'm guessing it's just asking price.

Looks similar to this:

I think Italy is one of the oldest country on earth. With that structure one can tell that it was built during the reign of Christ or few years after it.
The reign of Christ? Was there a time that Christ resigned?
I hope SENSE is not paining you?

Yeah it's really looking beautiful cool But it's because it was renovated by competent, professional building Engineers. And I'm just wondering how we can really know if the castle is really 600 years old undecided
Oyibos can lie oO

In short the house could be hunted.

That's how one person will rush and buy it because it's cheap. Then after moving in with his family, they will start hearing strange noise and start discovering strange doors and corridors. Mostly at night.

Houses do wear and tear, houses atimes have cracks, even the foundation can be affected. Looking at the wood patterns on the ceilings, I observed they are ancient patterns, very old stuffs, how they didn't wear off is what amazes me. So the house may have been renovated severally.

Why should a house that has existed so long not be safe to live in?

Have you ever seen a dilapidated building? What makes a building dilapidated? Simple...it's empty and abandoned. As long as human beings live in a building or are using it, then it will not encounter the problems you mentioned. Why? Maintenance, which entails fixing things, painting and keeping the building clean.

The Windsor castle is a residence of the king Charles and it's older than 600years and bigger than this Italian castle by far. How do you think it has stood so long?

We own one, and yes we abandoned the house, so you are right, though I'm still not totally convinced. Alright
