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.

No one witnessed the building process and Ed refused to share his secret, saying only that he knew “the secret of the pyramids”. Once you tour the massive Coral Castle you'll be in awe, and a little mystified, by the brilliant creation of one man.
