Something about castles immerses us in the lore of kings and queens of the past. When seeing pictures of the fascinating architecture it may not feel real. The ruins of Collings Castle in Turner Falls Park are a really fascinating destination that will transport you into the lore right in Oklahoma.
Collings Castle was built in 1930 in Davis, OK. The building was later abandoned in 1980, but still stands today in Turner Falls Park.

The castle was built by Dr. Ellsworth Collings, who was a professor at the University of Oklahoma at the time. His summer home was based on Old English architecture.

You are able to explore the inside of the building. The maze-like interior can keep you immersed in the stories the castle has to offer.

Many claim it is like getting a glimpse of the medieval time period. Don’t worry, there have been no dragon sightings yet!
