Explore the mysterious structure that is the Coral Castle. This unique stone landmark was constructed by Edward Leedskalnin over a 28 year period, from 1923 to 1951. How one man built this solid stone “castle” is still a mystery – supernatural powers? Superhuman strength? Sheer determination?

Once you tour the massive Coral Castle you'll be in awe, and a little mystified, by the brilliant creation of one man.
