    This is one of the most dramatic and tragic locations we've visited so far on our journey. George Boldt, a self-made millionaire, built this modern-day castle for his much younger wife, Louise. Tragically, she died mid-construction and George halted all building work on the castle, left Heart Island, and never returned.

    Beautiful but truly heartbreaking that no one ever lived in it. Loved that stained glass atrium area and the main fireplace! SO much gorgeous detail.

    In the 60's the castle was in very bad disrepair...falling apart due to the harsh winters....it made me sad as an 11 year old. NOW with restoration it is beautiful....so happy it has been saved

      Thank you for watching. It was a joy to see it all restored. They’re still working on some rooms. 💗

      I was there in 1978 on a school trip. Most of the castle was closed off and what was open was in great disrepair. Graffiti all over, nothing inside it at all.

    Mr boldt stop building because his wife died in 1904 so the castle didn’t get finished it’s sad on my bucket list to visit do they have the old blue print or they are building whatever they want
