Winnekenni Castle is in Haverhill Massachusetts. It was built in 1875 by Dr. James R. Nichols, a brilliant chemist and agriculturist. In 1872 he visited England and Scotland and was inspired by their long-standing stone structures. He returned with an idea to build a summer home from native boulders and rocks. He called the building Winnekenni Castle and the surrounding farm Winnekenni, an Algonquian Native American term for “Very Beautiful!”
