Castillo Pittamiglio, Las Flores, Medieval castle in Las Flores, Uruguay.
The castle showcases multiple passageways, angular towers, and stone walls decorated with religious and alchemical symbols throughout its two-floor structure.
Architect Humberto Pittamiglio purchased this land at age 23 and completed the construction of his recreational residence in 1956.
The castle reflects Pittamiglio's deep interest in Christian mysticism and alchemy, influenced by his mentor Francisco Piria's philosophical teachings.
Visitors can explore the castle daily from 9 AM to 4:40 PM, except Tuesdays, with extended hours until 8 PM during summer months.
Local residents reported seeing Pittamiglio walking at night wearing a red cape, adding to the mysterious nature of the property.
