Out in the Middle of NoWhere

High in the beautiful Rocky Mountains of southern Colorado there stands one of the most genuine Wonders of our contemporary World. Built entirely with the two hands of ONE MAN. BISHOP CASTLE is living testiment to what one can accomplish in this world armed with their dreams and the determination to make them real. Inspiring is the tale of how this 160 FOOT TALL! monument has come to be enjoyed by thousands, complete with a grand ball room, stained glass windows, and a Fire Breathing Dragon! Incredible is how folks from all walks of life and from all over the world are touched by simply being there. Jim Bishop is now 56 years young and his dream is to see just how much one man can build in a single lifetime! Construction Started in 1969.
