The castle of Dammarie-les-Lys, where the students of the “Star Academy” stayed, is open to the public until January 1. But the condition of some rooms in the castle shocked internet users.
The adventure lasted six weeks. On November 24, the doors of the Dammarie-les-Lys castle closed after welcoming the students of season 10 of the Star Academy, won by Anisha. After the end of the competition broadcast on TF1, the owner of the Castle of Vives-Eaux, Jean-Michel Pontet, however, received a large number of requests from fans of the show, who hoped to tread the ground of the building, in the footsteps of the academicians. Their wish was granted, and the castle opened its doors to the public on December 21. Telecrochet enthusiasts can visit it until Sunday January 1.
Visitors are thus authorized to walk around the rooms in which the candidates of the star Academy stayed for over a month. “Most of the decorations will be visible. It will not be a guided tour, but a stroll following a direction of progression“, said the owner of the establishment located in Seine-et-Marne. During these walks, some fans captured a few snaps before posting them on social media. And some of these pictures have scandalized internet usersshocked to find that some rooms in the castle were dilapidated.

Cracks, damaged walls… Internet users shocked
One of the offending pieces? The toilets, whose walls have not been renovated so as not to erase the words written by the former students of the star Academy For more than 20 years. Despite this laudable desire, the fans did not hide their astonishment. “But how is it already so rotten the walls?“, “Is it a squat room?”, “Behind the scenes: it’s disgusting !”, “Are they serious about leaving them in this state?”, can we read on Twitter. A daily reader West France has also shared his unpleasant experience. “The castle is in a sorry state (cracks, no baseboards on the floor, walls are dripping with damp…) and all the Star Academy decoration has already been removed, some walls have even been repainted”she testified, saying that this visit was a “scam“.

Words that echo those of some Internet users, who regretted the lack of decoration and furniture that could be seen during the daily Star Academy. A Twitter user, however, responded to these criticisms by specifying that it was above all a visit to the castle of Vives-Eaux, and not only that of the Star Academy: “I do not understand people who complain that there is nothing left, the castle belongs to an individual and not to the production and on the website it is indicated a visit of the castle of Vives-Eaux not the castle of the Star Academy.”
