An odd-ball tourist attraction: Built by Edward Leedskalnin, a lovesick Latvian, who some say knew the mysterious secret of levitation, by chiseling large blocks of coral stone (weighing as much as a ton) into shapes and even built an entire "castle" out of it – by himself.

The structure comprises numerous megalithic stones (mostly coral), each weighing several tons. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.
