One of Washington's best-kept secrets, The Brewmaster's Castle is the most intact late-Victorian home in the country, and a Landmark on the National Register of Historic Places.
Built in 1892-1894 of poured concrete and reinforced steel by German immigrant, local brewer and philanthropist, Christian Heurich (HI-rick), it is also the city's first fireproof home.
Heurich was Washington's second largest landowner, the largest employer of Germans in the nation's capital, and as the world's oldest brewer, ran his brewery until his death at 102 ½.
A visit to The Brewmaster's Castle is a visit back in time to the late-19th Century, when the Heurich family was in residence in Washington's premier residential neighborhood.
