The Castle at Skylands Manor


  • The Castle at Skylands Manor is a grand fifty-four room granite Tudor Revival mansion situated on one hundred acres of formal and naturalized gardens located in the New Jersey Botanical Gardens. The Skylands Castle was designed by noted American Architect John Russell Pope who was educated at Ecole des Beaux Aris in Paris. His other works include The National Archives and the National Gallery of Art. The builder was Elliot Brown Company, a New York City firm that also built estates for Franklin Roosevelt and E. Rolland Harriman. The Skylands Castle possesses a remarkable collection of antique stain glass medallions set in leaded windows from sixteenth century German, Swiss and Bavarian historical sites. Many typical features of the Tudor Revival style were incorporated into the design including the extensive use of stone, large groups of rectangular windows, pane glass windows, clusters of chimneys, paneled walls, and half timbering.
