One
of Florida’s oldest operating attractions, Coral
Castle is a monument to unrequited love. In
1923 an eccentric Latvian immigrant, Edward
Leedskalnin, began hauling tons of coral onto his
property. He carved it into a house and all the
furniture he needed. For seven years he worked alone
building this tribute to "Sweet Sixteen,"
a young girl who jilted him back in the old country.
