Freeman's Castle, TN.


On a roll here, one site seems to lead to another; the owners have guest books or links where I can search the messages left by other castle fans that have been to or know of other castles. Sort of following a trail of bread crumbs.

Freeman's Castle (or Castle Gwynn) is a castle that has been built over several years, and continues to grow. It is the centerpiece of the Tennessee Renaissance Festival which is held on the castle grounds every year. Talk about ambiance! The castle owners live amidst jousting and all other sorts of medieval festivities for part of the year, and the Ren Fair folks have a great castle to hang out around. There are tours of the castle available, but only at certain times of the year. Not sure how this castle was built, will have to see if the owners are amenable to an "interview".
