The Loveland Castle - Ohio

Château Laroche, also known as the Loveland Castle, is a museum on the banks of the Little Miami River north of Loveland, Ohio, United States. A folly of a historical European castle, construction began in the 1920s by Boy Scout troop leader, World War I veteran, and medievalist Harry D. Andrews.He built the castle on promotional plots of land that were obtained by paying for one-year subscriptions to The Cincinnati Enquirer. Andrews named his castle after a military hospital in the Chateau La Roche in southwest France where he was stationed during the First World War. Its name means "Rock Castle" in French. For over fifty years, Andrews worked on his castle project. He pulled stones from the nearby Little Miami River, and when that supply was exhausted, molded bricks with cement and quart milk cartons.When Andrews died in 1981 he willed the castle to his Boy Scout troop the Knights of the Golden Trail (KOGT)

I visited yesterday with my mother and son. We spent about 2.5 hours or more. It was great. Even in the heat like 90 it’s still absolutely tolerable inside. My son and I want to go back and help. The men we met Fred, lil Dave and big Dave were great as well. Go see it.

He's dead for a day or two and his fiancee married his friend. Is this some sort of record? Somehow Shadiversity has missed covering this.

[@robo293]

She was really broken up hu?Sounds like grounds for a donation to get a video on it.

[@MikeB-gf6dj]

What an interesting Video, and great commentary, informative and interesting. Sad that Harry did not get to marry by false information sent home that he had passed when he had not at all. What an amazing structure(s). Great video. Thanks for sharing. Cheers from NZ ! M.

[@robo293]

Wow, thanks for sharing.This is only a two hour drive from me and I have never heard if it.I'll put that one on my list to visit.They have a nice website.

[@shawnstatzer95]

Reminds me of the "Coral Castle" in Miami, also built by a Freemason!

Good video. Good informative explanation of the history of the castle. I did a couple videos here. Orbs seen at haunted castle in Loveland Ohio. I did another one here to. Check out my other videos of haunted castles, tunnels, cemeteries, factories and more.

Hope Sandman visited Neil Armstrong Museum in Wapakoneta, Ohio while he was down here. Building was designed using the nasa concept drawings of a moon base.

Poor bastard wasn't even cold yet and she went and married one of his so called friends.

I like how this is a MGTOW story as well!

[@marshawargo7238]

Can a girl be a knight ???

[@FirstLast-cd6vv]

What's that shit on his neck? Hope this guy doesn't croak like the other people you've interviewed!

[@bryanotero123]

Johnny Smith What do you think it is????

[@kelsmaster6385]

This video is outdated. Visited the castle today and it definitely didn't look this well kept. I remember in the 90's the Loveland Castle did a Halloween haunted house. It was a lot of fun. I'm not sure why they stopped having it.

[@koolbuildings7916]

This was filmed last year around this time. What was so unkept?

[@Gofishefurwitz]

@@koolbuildings7916 Last time I went to loveland castle there were a bunch of people with weird colored hair working on art projects and we weren't able to really see or enjoy much of the castle because of them and I think of renovations that were going on. This was however a couple years before this video.
