I enjoyed my stop there, I believe I went on my birthday, along with Monkey Jungle and Knaus Berry Farm. Ed's 'bedroom' was super creepy.

Interesting jcolletta. However I think he just hired a bunch of Miccosukee...

I agree w/ jcolleta275 -- I've lived here my whole life and just recently made it to coral castle for the first time. I was totally weirded out & amazed at the same time. Plus there are pictures in the gift shop of Billy Idol making a music video there. So awesomely bizarre!

While the famous "Sweet 16" love story legend is romantic, there's another theoretical explanation of Leedskalnin's motivations that isn't quite so well-known and, if true, may very well be the answer to several questions about not just his motivation to build Coral Castle, but also HOW he built it.

The theory is this: Edward had discovered how to use magnetism and some as-yet-unknown form of science to create some sort of anti-gravity system. The keys TO that system -- what laws of nature are involved and how to make it work -- are left in clues throughout the castle and it's property. The theory puts it that "Sweet 16" was not, as the love story goes, his fiancée Agnes Scuffs, but rather was a key element in one of the mathematical formulas required to make this mysterious force work.
