Review & FAQ:

Edward Leedskainin was a Latvian, slightly built and very secretive. When he was 26 he fell in love with Agnes who was just 'sweet sixteen'. They were to be married but she abandoned him on the day before the wedding. He spent the rest of his life building a monument to his lost love. Working at night, he transported and carved 1100 tons of coral into a fantasy world on a ten acre plot outside Homestead. Audio tours of the Coral Castle Museum are available in various languages and ghost tours are conducted at night time. The gift shops sells replicas of the sculptures and other memorabilia.
