A majestic castle named Casa Loma (Spanish for “Hill House”) is a Gothic Revival style mansion and garden in midtown Toronto,Ontario, Canada, that is now a historic house museum and landmark. It was constructed from 1911 to 1914 as a residence for financier Sir Henry Pellat but is now owned by the City of Toronto. The architect was E.J Lennox. who designed several other city landmarks. Casa Loma is one of North America’s most enchanting tourist attractions and best hospitality and special event venues in Toronto. Each year around 350,000 visitors tour Casa Loma and estate gardens. Casa Loma also hosts 250 private events annually. The house cost about $3.5 million and took 299 workers three years to build. Due to the start of World War I, construction was halted. At 98 rooms covering 64,700 square feet ,it was the largest private residence in Canada. Today the market value of this castle is $80-$100 Million. Due to its unique architectural character in Toronto, Casa Loma has been a popular filming location for movies and television. It is also a popular venue for wedding ceremonies, and Casa Loma can be rented in the evenings after the museum closes to the public. Henry imported artisans from Europe to design much of the furniture and other features of the castle. Casa Loma has five acres of gardens. A tunnel connects Casa Loma to the Hunting Lodge and to the stables (garage, potting shed, stalls). OAK ROOM The Oak Room (originally called the Napoleon Drawing Room) is the most decorated room in the house, and was used for formal occasions. It is encased in wood panels in the style of Grinling Gibbons, which took three artisans three years to carve. The highly ornamented plaster ceiling was made by Italian craftsmen, and was enhanced by the use of indirect lighting in the ceiling. Other rooms in Casa Loma include The Conservatory, a room that showcases plant life. The Conservatory also includes a fountain at one end of the room. The Round Room is designed to fit beneath the castle's tower; this room is notable for its doors and windows, which curve to follow the shape of the room.
