Atalaya and Brookgreen Gardens, National Historic Landmark district in Georgetown County, South Carolina.

The architectural ensemble features Atalaya Castle with Spanish Revival architecture and Brookgreen Gardens spanning over 9,000 acres of preserved natural landscapes.

Archer and Anna Hyatt Huntington established this winter residence and sculpture garden complex between 1931 and 1933, incorporating Moorish design elements.

Brookgreen Gardens contains the first public sculpture garden in the United States, displaying over 2,000 works from late 19th to mid-20th century artists.

Visitors can access both the castle through Huntington Beach State Park and the gardens, which feature extensive walking paths through natural and sculptural exhibits.

The property includes specialized spaces like Anna Huntington's personal art studio and a dedicated animal enclosure where she studied subjects for her sculptures.
