Norumbega Castle, Queen Anne style castle in Camden, Maine.
The stone and brick structure features a three-story central section with a stepped gable and includes a conical turret on its right section.
Built between 1886 and 1887 for Joseph Barker Stearns, an inventor who gained wealth through his patents in duplex telegraphy technology.
The property stands as part of the High Street Historic District, representing the architectural preferences of wealthy Maine residents in the late 1800s.
The castle now operates as Norumbega Inn, offering eleven rooms across four floors with views of Penobscot Bay and local dining options.
The building combines Maine architectural traditions with global design elements, featuring soaring arches, leaded glass windows, and original steam heating systems.
