Hammond Castle Museum is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The museum offers self-guided guided and specialty tours as well as numerous educational and cultural events throughout the year. It is also available for corporate and private event rentals.
Our founder, John Hays Hammond Jr, is known as “The Father of Radio Control,” was one of America’s most prolific inventors of his time. Built from 1926 through 1929, and incorporated as a museum in 1930, the castle’s architectural style is mix of a medieval castle, French chateau, and a Gothic cathedral. It was custom built to encompass Hammond’s private residence, laboratory, and museum quality collection of architectural elements such as the facades of medieval shops and doorways from French chateaus. Also on display is Hammond’s extensive list of patents, his work with radio control and his work on guided torpedoes for the military.
