Huntington Beach State Park to the north of Litchfield beach is home to another National Historic Landmark, Atalaya Castle. The castle was built between 1931 and 1933. It boasts thirty rooms laid out around three sides of a courtyard and was situated on the ocean within an estate that was originally over 9,000 acres of land. They used part of that acreage to build a sculpture garden, known as the recently referenced Brookgreen Gardens. Originally, the castle was a winter home for the Huntington family, but during World War II the Huntington’s let the United States Air Corps us it as a Barracks. In 1960, 2,500 acres of the estate was leased to the state of South Carolina and Huntington State Park was formed who now keeps the house and grounds. If you travel during September, you can attend an art festival held at Atalaya Castle.
