The Castle, built in 1855, is a rare example of Gothic Revival residential architecture in the region. This stone mansion features pointed-arch windows, steep gables, and a crenellated tower. Inside, period rooms are furnished with original pieces from the family that built it, including ornate woodwork, stained glass, and a grand staircase. Visitors can tour the parlor, library, dining room, and bedrooms, each decorated to reflect the Victorian era. The Castle also hosts seasonal events and exhibits on local history. Its hilltop location provides views of the historic district.
