Kentucky is filled with amazing architecture of all kinds, featuring many homes and buildings that are certainly eye-catching.

However, there’s a surprising property with a fascinating story tucked away in Lexington, and it’s a true piece of Kentucky history. The Loudoun House is a unique, castle-like structure that is one of the last of its kind in the entire country.
