Initially built in 1895 as a residence for Father Jean Baptist Francolon, Miramont Castle Museum represents an architectural delight with styles ranging from Byzantine to Tudor. Today, tour the museum's 42 rooms decorated in Victorian-era fashion as well as lush, manicured gardens. Along the way, keep your eyes peeled for ghosts--many claim the attraction is haunted by apparitions. Just ask the staff about some of the house's unexplained incidents!

A fascinating experience. The lady at the front desk was welcoming and witty when it came to giving details about the castle upon our arrival. It is a self guided tour with ample materials to read about the history of what went on in the castle. I am glad the building still stands and remains to this day a piece of history as well as a joy for both locals and tourists to enjoy. I find the infrastructure to be the most phenomenal part of the castle but I was happy to learn many of the peculiar stories and fun facts. An excellent location to bring all ages for a brief history.

This is a very interesting place to visit. It looks more like an old mansion than it does a castle though. There is more history presented about the area and different eras. The castle went through different ownerships and different phases. If you are a history buff it is worth the tour.
