Inside Château Marçonnay

One of the rooms inside (on the left) is given over to the owner's large collection of old implements. Lisbeth took this photo to feature the fireplace (as opposed to the implements) as her friend is restoring and 14th century fortified house which once had a fireplace not dissimilar to this one. On the right, is another fireplace in the owner's sitting room. The shaded parts either side of the central coat of arms are the remains of the original paintings on the stonework.
