Mystery in Stone: The Coral Castle

Buy Me a Coffee to help support the show. Thank you.Heartbreak can shatter some, but for one man, it became the foundation—literally—for a marvel that has baffled engineers and mystics alike. In Homestead, Florida, Edward Leedskalnin built Coral Castle as a tribute to the woman who left him at the altar. Standing just 5 feet tall and weighing only 100 pounds, Ed moved and carved massive coral stones—some weighing several tons—without machinery and allegedly without help.Decades later, no one can fully explain how he did it. Was he a genius ahead of his time, or did something more mysterious aid his work?Join host Bill Monty as he takes you on a TALK down Memory Lane, digging into the lore, the heartbreak, and the unanswered questions that make Coral Castle one of America's most beguiling monuments.Send Me a MessageSupport the showClick the Leave A Message link above to text Bill Monty...FREE!Share your Memories here: Send a voice message to TalesFromSouthFloridaVisit our website at Tales From South Florida Want to be a guest on Tales From South Florida?
