The 1926 Medieval-style Hammond Castle was built by John Hays Hammond Jr. in Gloucester, Massachusetts.
It is one of Gloucester's most engaging destinations. The experience is a lot to take in with beautiful gardens, classic medieval architecture, the Atlantic ocean steps away, and an unmatched collection of art, technology, religious objects, and curiosities all in one place. I recommend you plan half a day and pack a lunch to get the most out of your visit.
