Ce June 2, 2026France 2 broadcasts a new version of Let yourself be guidedémission portée par Stéphane Bern and Lorà nt Deutsch, two passionate figures of heritage andhistory.
Ensemble, they go back to the 1920sbetween emerging modernity and memory of a Paris in full change.
But far from the sets, the actor leads a very different life. In the Berryhe has put down his bags for several years. And not just anywhere.
A discreet house in a popular village in Berry
C’est à Neuvy-sur-Barangeona small town in Cher, where Lorà nt Deutsch chose to settle. A quiet village, surrounded by forests and ponds, about two hours from Paris. Here, the inhabitants describe a simple life, punctuated by nature and tranquility.
Sa propriété, estimée à environ 500 000 eurosis located in an area slightly set back from the town. A house surrounded by a large plot of landfar from view, where the actor comes to recharge his batteries with his family. A village shopkeeper sums up the place like this: “It’s a little out of the way, with a very large plot of landâ€.
This life choice is not isolated. The village attracts several personalities. Among them, Christophe Dechavanne, who also owns a property in the townconfirming the discreet but sought-after status of this corner of Berry.
Discreet cohabitation between celebrities and locals
In Neuvy-sur-Barangeon, the presence of personalities does not disrupt everyday life. Quite the contrary. Residents speak of a rare balance between discrétion et peaceful cohabitation.
The village mayor highlights this particular atmosphere: “The famous people here live like everyone else. They go shopping, walk around, without trying to be noticed.”. An atmosphere that many compare to a refuge far from media pressure.
In this setting, Lorà nt Deutsch adopts the same behavior. Little visible, often with family, he favors walks and local life. The village becomes a space of withdrawalbut also anchoring. A form of return to basics, far from Parisian studios.
A family life between nature, heritage and fishing
In this Berry house, the actor divides his time between his passion for heritagehis writing work and simpler moments. The surrounding nature plays a central role. Forests, paths, ponds: everything invites you to slow down.
The inhabitants also tell of a discreet but present man. We sometimes meet him among traders or on the roads, often accompanied by his children. On weekends, he enjoys local activities, including piecesvery popular in the region.
A resident remembers a visit to a local business: “He came in like a normal customer, very polite, very simple.â€. An image that often comes up in testimonies.
In this life far from Paris, Lorà nt Deutsch seems to have found a balance. Between filming, cultural projects and green retreats, he embodies a form of double life: that of the media artist and that of the man attached to Berry land.
In this corner of Berry, between forest and rural heritage, fame fades. What remains is a house, a large piece of land, and almost total discretion, shared with a few illustrious but silent neighbors.
