Strongly reminds me of the Palais idΓ©al du facteur cheval in Hauterives, France !
A "palace" that was singlehandedly built by a postman over thirty years (late 1800s) with pebbles mainly picked up on his route.

I've been there, it's pretty crazy. There are a bunch of anti-government rants in front of the entrance that you can't see from this picture, so this place has a pretty weird vibe.
Yeah well. I'm gonna build my own castle with blackja... towers and dragons!
That guy, probably
Impressive work.
By the time he got that done I bet he was ripped as hell.
He worked on it for 75 years. (Age 15-80)
He probably was ripped at some point but when I met him he was old but still kicking
I picture him wiry as hell, skin like leather - like a retired old roofer who used to live next door to me.
Look into Ed Leedskalnin and Coral Castle. Fascinating story.
Crazy place. It was a great place to take visitors when I lived in the area.
The first one sank into the swamp.
Oh, that's why the walls aren't straight.
