When you think of castles, you probably think of medieval times. And these medieval times are across the Atlantic Ocean in places like England or European countries. You almost definitely don’t think of America and the state of Georgia. But you don’t need to go to Ireland or France to see these architectural delights straight out of a fairy tale – there are at least 7 magnificent castles in Georgia. Come and see for yourself.
This castle is located in Grantville, Georgia. It's now closed down and there have even been reports of ghosts and hauntings within. It's also said that Roosevelt stayed there many times.
This castle resides in the beautiful mountains of Blue Ridge, GA. For about 2 million dollars, this home can be yours. It includes a 70-acre property with 14-foot ceilings and indoor pool. It even comes with its own stocked pond and equestrian trails.
Take me back to the stone ages! This castle has its own moat and dwarfs protecting its premises. The moat doubles as a swimming pool for the private residents, neighbors assert. Check out this article to read more about McLaughlin Castle.
Dubbed the "Castle on Peachtree," this grand palace was once the home of furniture magnate Amos G. Rhodes. It is also the headquarters for the Georgia Trust for Historic Preservation.

This castle is located in Cloudland, GA, and is priced at a hefty 5 million. It was built by Dale and Lee Werner, and is a whopping 58,000 sq. feet.
We don’t know about you, but we think some of these are worth a trip this summer. It’s a lot cheaper than flying to Europe, too. Whether you consider these structures to be chateaus, giant homes, or castles in Georgia, one thing to agree on is that they are all unique. Are there any other castles that we left out of this list?
