The Castle Returns:
The Elegance Of History Reborn

Perched high above Metamora, Indiana, Metamora Castle has long captured the curiosity and imagination of those who glimpse its mysterious stone tower overlooking the Whitewater Valley. Now, under the ownership of Brandon and Alicia, this one-of-a-kind landmark is experiencing a remarkable revival. Through thoughtful restoration and a passion for preserving its character, the castle is beginning an exciting new chapter as a destination for intimate weddings, private celebrations, and unforgettable overnight stays. What began as a birthday getaway turned into an unexpected love for the castle, its history, and the surrounding community. Today, that passion is bringing new life to the historic-inspired estate, blending its distinctive past with new opportunities to create lasting memories. The castle's next chapter is no longer just a vision. It's becoming a reality, and you're invited to be part of it.
