Quigley Castle, Eureka Springs

Quigley Castle, just south of Eureka Springs, was constructed by Elise Quigley and her family in the 1930s and 1940s from rocks that she collected throughout her life. She built it around 28 huge windows with an indoor garden with trees, rocks, minerals, and butterflies throughout. Until her death in the 1980s, she continued constructing beautiful artwork out of rock and crystals, creating an amazing perennial garden. Definitely unique and a cool side trip from Eureka! It reminds me of something that my great grandmother, Grey Granny, would have loved.
