Nesbitt Castle, Castle building in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe.
Nesbitt Castle displays stone walls, battlements, and a Gothic tower, combining Scottish and Tudor architectural elements near Bulawayo's outskirts.
Theodore Holdengarde, a South African businessman and former mayor of Bulawayo, constructed the castle during weekends in the 1920s with a small team.
The property transformed from a private residence into a hotel, reflecting the changes in Zimbabwe's social structure through the 20th century.
The castle requires advance reservations for guided tours, which include explanations of architectural features and access to the maintained gardens.
The castle served as a filming location for the 1992 movie 'Power of One,' featuring actors Morgan Freeman and Daniel Craig.
