If live in Melbourne, you'd know what Kryal Castle is.
It was built over 30yrs ago as a medieval castle,
replicating feudal old England.
A tourist business, but many locals regularly
go there, including school groups, like I did many years ago!

It's located just outside of Ballarat,
which is a gold mining town from the 19th Century,
an hour's from Melbourne city.

It has a moat, with a large drawbridge,
and when you walk inside (below) it's very lifelike.
I remember the old cemetery,
and I loved watching the live shows, they were very funny!


The displays at the venue are tired and old,
and not what you would
call "cutting edge",
but it has a charm to it,

albeit a simple one - it really could have done with a
new lease on life, perhaps with this sale, a new owner
will take over with the intention of fixing it up.
I heard on the news a month ago that even a brothel
owner was considering buying it
to showcase an international brothel from there!

(good luck with that mate - Ballarat - I don't think so!)

Recent expansions over the years included catering
for weddings etc, this is the dining area.




It also became a motel a while ago...


And here's the Wedding Chapel.

These days Kryal Castle is most infamous as a "rave" venue
for teenagers etc... not getting the best of reputations,
however, I heard they make big money from those nights,
so who knows what's next - depends on the buyer I guess!

AND here's what the Agent said about it!


As the Famous Saying Goes "A Man's Home Is His Castle"

This magnificent property was 15 years in the making to become one of Victoria's top tourist attractions and one of a kind in Australia.

Warrenheip in Dunnstown, approximately 8km from the Ballarat CBD. It was built in 1972 and opened to the public in 1974 by Keith & Joyce Ryall, who have owned and operated the theme park tourist attraction for the past 36 years. The 10.9 hectare property, which comes complete with bluestone castle, moat, drawbridge, tavern and maze, would be suitable for many different business opportunities, or for private use.
