During our big urbex roadtrip last February...
...our local friends decided to show us an abandoned luxury villa.
Together with Luca from the youtube channel UrbexLuca...
...and his mate Steve we entered the overgrown property somewhere in Luxembourg.
Apparently this mansion belonged to a successful building contractor.
The business itself is right next door.
...and abandoned as well.
Everything is abandoned. But you can't get inside.
It all belongs to the owner of the mansion.
No one took it away? - Nope.
Really wicked. - Let's get inside the mansion.
Don't go that far, Luca. There are cameras.
Just wanted to say that. - There are cameras, don't go too far.
But before we could have start our exploration there was a short moment of shock.
Some guys didn't cover the access point.
Or maybe they're still inside.
There's someone!
What's the matter?
Somebody's there.
Hi. - Hello, how are you?
To be honest...
...we didn’t expect other explorers.
I want to go inside...
...then I see military pants and think that's Steve. But then I think: Wait, what? He's walking right behind me.
Well, these guys could have been security or something like that. - Thought the same.
Over here's a big carhouse.
Seems like scrap metal thieves weren't here yet.
It was pitch-black everywhere.
And where the windows weren’t blocked up...
...we had to be very careful with our flashlights.
...because no one should spot us from the outside.
Unfortunately almost no furnishings are left.
Although you can still get a good idea of how the different rooms were used back then.
For example: There’s a slaughtering block in the mansion.
...and even a cold room.
And our personal highlight...
A panic room!
Behind the back of the wall cabinet is the safe.
Wait, what? Say again.
You have to close the door at first...
And then you can pull here and move the cabinet in front of the safe.
And then you have a safe hidden behind a wall cabinet.
Marco, we just cracked it!
The safe? - Yep!
This door is really heavy...
It's a panic room! There's even a telephone.
You can lock yourself here in case of an home invasion.
And here's the real safe. - In the panic room is another safe?
Sweet lamp.
Yo, dude. I'm chillin' in my panic room.
Wanna come over?
Yeah, I'm talkin' 'bout the nice spot behind the wall cabinet.
'Aight, see you!
Bring some chicks and bottles, yo!
As far as we know, this building and the neighboring construction company...
...have been abandoned for some years now because of a lawsuit.
The legal battle is about two former business associates...
...who are involved in a dispute with each other.
...which is all about a lot of money and crooked machinations.
As well as jewelry, wine and...
...how could it be otherwise...
...weapons.
One of the associates is being accused of having used the account of the building company...
...of which he only owns a stake in...
...and embezzled around five million Euros to lease a hunting ground in Germany.
That would explain these weird tiles you can find everywhere in the house.
Would rather fit in a hunter's cabin.
Boy, oh boy...
Looks expensive. - These are marble stairs!
They had an elevator?? So they didn't have to climb the huge stairs.
Thought there would be more mold in the fridge.
This stove plate is cleaner than the one in my den.
Anyone wants a glass of Riesling?
Nature will always find a way.
...even when there's a window shade.
Gosh...
With golden drain... C'mon!
As you might know from other abandoned places...
Someone settled down here.
The attic...
Here's the big elevator engine!
It looks brand-new compared to the stuff we find usually.
There isn't even a big layer of dust.
Cables are still unimpaired...
They actually had a bidet...
...featuring a toilet!
What?
A bidet...
...WITH A TOILET!
How...?
That's sick, right?
These guys must have been super rich!
They even had a christmas ball...
...on their soap holder.
...which is the epitome of decadence.
These guys were like toilet fetichists. There are bathrooms everywhere.
Take a look over here. That's what i call the lap of luxury.
Even the electrical wires are covered with a wooden wall panelling.
Of course a spa area must not be missing.
Next to an indoor swimming pool...
...there’s for example sweatbath.
Everything is still in pretty good condition.
After sunset we left this impressive estate and hit the road...
...to explore in the middle of the night an abandoned hotel...
...which is said to be haunted.
But more on that in the next episode.

He was one of our guides on our road trip and he visited some crazy places which you can see in his videos.
