Castle Mont Rouge is a castle located on Red Mountain in Rougemont, North Carolina, north of Durham.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8] The castle was designed by American sculptor Robert Mihaly, known for his work at Duke University and the National Cathedral, as a private residence and country studio.[9] The design was based on architecture from Central and Eastern Europe, complete with 18 pinnacles and a turret.[10][8]
Robert Mihaly began construction of Castle Mont Rouge without a blueprint in the year 2000.[11][4][12][13] He lived in one of the finished rooms and was joined by long-time partner, Caroline Smith, whom he met in 2003 and who described living there as "whimsical fun, enigmatic, and romantic".[4][5][6][7]
The castle was abandoned in 2006,[6] although a fundraising campaign featuring Mihaly's two children was launched to fund renovating it in 2014. The castle was still abandoned as of 2016.[14][15][16][17] Mihaly began restoring the castle in 2017, citing his desire to finish it while his children are still children.[8][4][5][7]
The castle has been cited as a Disney-like fairytale castle,[18][19] an abandoned or deserted castle,[20] a quirky North Carolina destination,[21] and the most bizarre building in North Carolina.[22]
Much rumor and lore has been built around Castle Mont Rouge and its creator, Robert Mihaly.[4][5][6][7][23] Mihaly referenced the rumor about the death of his wife in a televised news story, acknowledging that he is not a widower.[4][5][7]
