Experience historic Larnach Castle

Situated on the picturesque Otago Peninsula, Larnach Castle is a stunning attraction. It was restored by the Barker Family, the Castle and surrounding grounds are rich in history that dates back to 1871 when it was built by William Larnach, merchant baron and politician and his family. 

It took more than 200 workmen, three years to build the Castle shell and master European craftsmen spent a further 12 years embellishing the interior which features the finest materials from around the world.

The Castle is still privately owned and cared for by the Barker family who purchased it as their home in 1967. Decades have been spent on the Castle's restoration, assembling a large collection of original New Zealand period furniture and antiques. This living collection showcases the craftsmanship and spirt of New Zealand.

Whilst visiting, you will hear of the tragic and scandalous history on a guided tour, before enjoying time to wander around the garden. The gardens at Larnach Castle have been rated by the New Zealand Gardens Trust as a Garden of International Significance.
