Larnach Castle - Dunedin's Must See Visitor Attraction!

Highlights

William Larnach built Larnach Castle for his beloved wife over 150 years ago and it stands proud as New Zealand’s castle.

15 years of painstaking construction by master craftsmen made this building a majestic and imposing mansion, and one of the most iconic buildings in the country. The castle is symbolic of Dunedin’s rich history and heritage and a visit to it is a must-do for locals and visitors alike.

The castle has had many uses in its time, from mental asylum, to a hospital for soldiers, to a nun's retreat. The ballroom was once even used as a holding pen for sheep long before the current owners took on the mammoth task of restoring the castle to its former glory.

Lovely garden

城堡一般,房间不是很多,楼下介绍的房间灯坏掉了,什么也看不到。但花园很漂亮值得一看

非常好的体验

我这次采用乘坐18路公交后,再走步道的方式到达城堡,一路上风景非常漂亮,进去城堡后,我花了5块钱租用了中文解说设备,听了关于城堡的真实,曲折离奇故事,城堡内部装修非常讲究,能让我体会到经典的英伦风格,中午在城堡吃午饭,味道非常不错,推荐大家哦

Specil experience

非常特別的城堡和花園,其實園區並不大,單純逛逛看看一個小時內可看完,城堡內可花$5租用中文導覽,也可以在城堡內的Cafe喝喝早午茶、下午茶,從市區開過來大約要半小時時間。
