Francisco Piria Castle, Uruguay - Paul Ferguson - 01-05-2026
"Welcome to the Francisco Piria Castle, a place where 19th-century ambition took architectural form. This battlemented residence turned museum tells the story of Francisco Piria, the entrepreneur who transformed Uruguay's coastline and brought a touch of European grandeur to South America...What sets this castle apart is its hidden basement, where Piria conducted alchemical experiments. Though closed to visitors, this laboratory adds an air of mystery to the estate."
