Landmarks  

RICHTOFEN CASTLE
7020 East 12th Avenue

Baron Walter von Richthofen erected this rhyolite castle as the show home of Montclair, his suburban real estate scheme, in 1887. The original structure, a prickly Prussian affair was remodeled in 1910 by Edwin Hendrie who had purchased it as his home. J. J. B. Benedict designed the south wing in 1924. The 35-room castle features an oak-panelled entry hall, hand-tooled leather walls, and parquet-floored music room that seats 150. The gatehouse to the east has been converted to a separate residence.
