Frenchman Builds a Dream Château on a Grand Estate in the Ozarks

I am french and visited the Guedelon castle a few years ago.<p>Before visiting the castle, I had done a full year trip around the world to see all the greatest human made monuments (Angkor wat in Cambodia was my favourite).<p>I was stomached when I realized the Guedelon castle surpasses all that I had seen so far.<p>Highly recommended for anybody visiting France.

Now how historians from the XXXth century will make sense of that, I'd like to know :)

There is an older (and I think better known, and possibly more interesting) case, that of the Facteur Cheval: - <a href="http://www.facteurcheval.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.facteurcheval.com/</a> - <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferdinand_Cheval" rel="nofollow">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferdinand_Cheval</a><p>He built a palace all on its own, with his own distinct style, back in the early XXth century.

That's about an hour from my parent's house. All kinds of bizarre stuff built out there. Cheap land and labor and few to no building codes.

It was a mistake not to oppose the Frenchman's arrival in our lands. After the Frenchman finishes the castle, he will start breeding orcs.

What a beautiful project!
