Review & FAQ:
Atalaya Castle is the former holiday home of Archer Huntington, who was the son of a well-to-do robber baron, and his wife Anna, who was a famous sculptor.
At one time they owned a massive amount of property including what is now the Huntington State Park. The property includes more than thirty rooms built around a perimeter creating an enclosed courtyard in the middle.
The large home has a 40-foot tall square water tower in the center that provided the home with water.
The property also includes Anna’s sculpting studio and a small stable. During the summer tourist season, the castle is staffed with docent guides who provide one hour guided tours of the building and grounds.
