This time not a LEGO-designed castle but a castle as real as possible. Take the
grand tour and tell me what you think of it.

I had a chance to see this castle at LEGOWORLD 2003, and get to know the
builder, Leo and his lovely wife very graciously shared a cabin with us at
Lemenkulen (probably mangled that spelling but oh well).

IT ROCKS! The pictures are amazing but do NOT do the real thing justice. It's
just HUGE, they had to rent a truck to bring it. There is a lot to look at! It's
a bit bigger than I suppose I'd build as it exceeds minifig scale but it has a
great deal of detail and it's just so LARGE.

I'm glad that these pics have been shared with the world... Thanks!

Thanks for visiting my castle twice!
At first in real live and now virtual. It was a great pleasure to have met you
and your son at LEGOWOLD 2003. And I have learnt some English (American)
expressions too.

I built this castle 1:25 from original drawings and that explains the
dimensions.

Greetings Leo and Iris.
