Heurich House

TIME : 2016/2/18 11:44:33

Welcome to ‘the castle that beer built.’ John Granville Myers designed the 31-room mansion for German-born brewer Christian Heurich, a man who loved beer with a passion. One quote along the walls states: ‘Raum ist in der kleinsten Kammer fur den grossten Katzenjammer ’ (‘There is room in the smallest chamber for the biggest hangover’). Entry is by guided tour only, though DIY explorations of the gardens (11am to 3pm April to October) are permitted.
