Boldt Castle on Heart Island

This is Boldt Castle and was being built by George C. Boldt. An eternal monument to the memory of a man's love for his wife. In 1904 construction was well underway on the 120 room castle when tragedy struck. A telegram announcing the death of George's wife arrived.. three hundred artisans and craftsman's were commanded to "stop all construction". A broken hearted Boldt never returned to the Island. Today, and ongoing major restoration is underway to stabilize and restore the castle.
