Casa Loma

Région touristique : Greater Toronto

The Casa Loma estate constructed between 1907 and 1914, was home to the prominent Toronto financier Sir Henry Pellatt and his wife Mary. They enjoyed Casa Loma for less than ten years before financial misfortune forced the Pellatts to abandon their dream castle.
Today, Casa Loma is one of Toronto's most popular tourist attractions. This renowned landmark features unique architecture, soaring ceilings, rich wood carving, sumptuous marble and luminous stained glass. You can also explore secret passages, view the city from one of two towers, and traverse an 800-foot tunnel to luxurious stables. Five acres of beautiful estate gardens surround the castle and offer sparkling fountains, unique sculpture and dazzling displays of rare annuals and perennials that change with the seasons.
