Nobody lived there. The place was inhabited by all kinds of domestic animals: ducks, chicken, cats, turkeys, rabbits, sheep, donkey, two horses, and even two peacocks. Once a day in the evening a care-taker would drive in to feed and pick up customary eggs of different shapes and colors. He would swing estate’s main gate wide open and have all animals freely go out for pasture. At dusk, he would whistle, and animals would return one by one.
