The World's Smallest Castle is 1.5 Metres Tall - Apparently.
In the 1970s, the Guinness World Records recognized the 'Castle Drogo' as the smallest castle in the world, built in 1890 by English architect Edwin Lutyens. Located in Devon, England, it measures only 1.5 metres tall, including its foundations. The castle's owner, John St. Maur St. Clair, was a local lord who wanted a small, luxurious retreat. The castle's tiny size belies its grand architectural style, which was meant to evoke a sense of opulence and grandeur despite its modest proportions.
