Wings Castle

A unique architectural site in the Millbrook area that shouldn't be missed is Wing's Castle. This Hudson River stone castle was built by Peter and Toni Wing using salvaged materials from antique buildings. The castle with 7 towers and moat took more than 23 years to build and they are still not finished.

In January of 1999, Princess Patricia and I visited 9 castles in the New York area. Of the castles we saw, we agreed that Wing's castle was the most interesting. Peter Wing is not only a builder, but also an artist, and the work he has done on his castle shows this talent. Where another castle might have a plain wall, Mr. Wing has crafted a face out of stone fragments. Where another castle might have a bathroom in the shape of a square or a rectangle, Wing's castle has one shaped something like a 3 leaf clover.
