The Albion Castle



From: http://pauldejong.com/~castle/

The Albion Castle, 881 Innes Avenue San Francisco Ca

The Albion Castle was built as a brewery in 1870. During prohibition it was closed down since they could not sell their beer. Parts of the building burned down during that time. The castle was rebuilt by a sculptor in 1939. The wall and the caves are from 1870, but most of the wood is from 1939. See more images and details at AlbionCastle.US. The building consists of a 6 story square tower attached to a small building and castle ruins which run into the terraced gardens. There are tons of great spaces to hang out in. There are also some caves and underground pools fed by fresh spring water. The caves were built/dug as part of the brewery in 1870.
