Located in Logan County are two chateaux style castles with a Gothic design. They're absolutely stunning and most people don't even know they exist.

The castles are named Mac-A-Cheek Castle (pictured below) and Mac-O-Chee Castle.

The pair of castles were built by the Piatt brothers in 1864. They were named after the Shawnee Indians and their former village of Mackachack.
