Visited my photo friend in Söderköping for two days.

We traveled around the country to photograph.

Near her home is this fairy tale castle, originally from the 16th century, but the current building is significantly younger.

The castle is called Ekenäs, and many strange words and myths are about it.

 

One of them is: Greve Mauritz Vellingk has got rid of secret actions and the boy who helped him was then wrapped in a secretarial basement not to come out and tell the secret. The renovated room, which has never been opened, is called "Nisses hole". It is said that if space opens, a major accident will hit both the castle and its owners.

 

Another is on the so-called Hönsagumman, which is said to have saved the castle from hostile attacks and therefore become portrayed, which otherwise was unusual for service people. She still keeps a watchful eye on everyone who enters the castle.

Şirince (pronounced [ʃiˈɾindʒe]) is a village of 600 inhabitants in İzmir Province, Turkey, located about 8 kilometres (5.0 mi) east of the town Selçuk and about 8 kilometres from Ephesus. The area around the village has history dating back to Hellenistic period (323-31 BC). Pottery finds made around the village between 2001 and 2002 by Ersoy and Gurler indicate the presence of seven villages and nine farmsteads in the area dating back to ancient and medieval times. On the road up you will see the remains of several Roman aqueducts as the village was an important water source for ancient Ephesus. Today the village prospers through agriculture (olive oil, peaches, wine) and tourism. Almost all of the houses dating back to 19th century have been renovated and most converted into boutique hotels.

This is from a walloon ironworks environment.

Walloon ironworks is a collective name for a number of industrial communities in northern Uppland, constructed in the 1600s.

A financier, Louis De Geer in Amsterdam, imported labor to Sweden, Walloons of Wallonia in southern Belgium current, which was then a world leader in the iron industry. Walloon ironworks in Sweden came in this way to become the world leader by, among other things because of the high quality of the iron ore from the Dannemora mines.

This was the foundation for the industrialization of the farming community Sweden.

The ironworks was strictly limited. The workers were given housing, food, education, healthcare, but few opportunities to move. For each work home was a building for livestock as cattle, pigs, chickens.

Nowadays, it is an industrial memory of an era that is almost forgotten.

There are a lot of movies, documentaries, and Halloween tours dedicated to the mysteries, horrors, and history of these mansions.

So, when I saw in the store this decoration for Halloween, I had to buy it and it was on sale. It has lots of creepy sounds and laughs. So, I decided to take this photo and one from my son's Skeletor action figure to make this image.

Happy Halloween! 🎃

Mansion in St Joseph, MI

Šmarje pri Jelšah, Slovenia

   

This is a local landmark that has fallen into disrepair. Built around 1880 the house must have been magnificent in its day. It still appears to be relatively good shape.

This photo captures the historic Mowry Irvine Mansion standing elegantly under a cloudy spring sky. The black and white edit highlights the intricate architectural details of its Second Empire style, including the prominent mansard roof, decorative brackets, and a sweeping covered porch. Built in 1876, it was constructed for Fred Grumme, a German immigrant who settled in Marshalltown, Iowa.

The long abandoned and badly decaying Latherow mansion is pretty much unshootable this time of the year because of the overgrowth.But it is still easy to see from this angle,it was a pretty special place in its day.It is rumoured that the mansion was a part of the Underground Railroad.It was built prior to the Civil War,and was occupied by a Latherow family relative till 1997....

 

The title refers to the town the mansion sits on the edge of,Fountain Green.

The beautiful Cylburn mansion was built in the 1860s as the private estate of businessman Jesse Tyson. It still has the original tapestry (frayed in places) on the walls in this grand center hall.

This intriguing old deserted mansion is nestled in a small ravine surrounded by low grassy hills on three sides. It is located just north of Highway 20, less than one half mile west of the present day Wauconda store and post office. There is a pull off next to Hwy. 20 to park and observe the old mansion. The Pflug mansion is on private land.

John and Anna Pflug came to America in the fall of 1900 from Eastern Germany where they were born. John Pflug, was a small German man, and he had a dream of building a beautiful German style house for his growing family. He started building his dream home in the summer of 1908. Money was scarce in those early years for homesteaders, he hired no help, doing all the carpenter work himself and hauling the lumber from Turpen’s sawmill on Bonaparte Creek, about ten miles away with a team and wagon. His German style home was never completed. Like most of the early homesteaders, he found that all he could do was to take care of his family and send there children to school.
