Come with me to explore
Come with me to explore Gillette Castle in Connecticut, made up of building stones taken from the property that formed about 500 million years ago, when Earth looked unrecognizable. We'll first go back in time half a billion years to when an ancient ocean existed off the old continent of North America, then we'll hop up to 300 million years ago, 200 million years ago, and finally ~10,000 years ago. The building stones of this castle are like a book that tells the story of Connecticut's turbulent geologic past.
