Quick Summary:

  • The idea of fairytale castles typically conjures images of medieval Europe rather than the United States, but if you know where to look, America is full of beautiful castles and chateaus as well.
  • Many are open to the public for guided or self-guided tours, and still others offer more unique experiences for visitors to enjoy, including wine tours and tastings, elegant dinners, and fantastic collections of art and antiques.
