After the fire, it's almost been rebuilt

Kentucky Castle

It's been a landmark since 1969, and when it burnt due to arson a couple of years ago, there were some who wondered it it would survive. But the owner has carefully rebuilt the castle and has plans to finish it--something that had not been done before.

Thereafter, twice each year, [the owner] will consider leasing out the entire facility, with its spectacular views of the countryside and its proximity to Keeneland Race Course, to discriminating individuals seeking unique tourist accommodations. At other times during the year, portions of the Castle may be rented to guests wishing to enjoy sophisticated lodging in a true medieval setting.

And, as the owner has steadfastly promised, the Castle will be available for select meetings, parties, and weddings annually.

No word on how expensive it would be, but what bride wouldn't want to get married in a castle as part of a fairy-tale wedding? :)

Anyway, it's good to see it being rehabilitated.
