Visiting Salisbury House, Des Moines Landmark

This American castle is another surprising find in this city on the plains. Salisbury House is another active participant in the Des Moines arts scene. Like the Sylvan Theater, Jazz in July makes a stop on these grounds. I've not been in the building yet but have heard that it's truly a treat. Built in the 1920s by the Weeks family, they went to great lengths to see that it reflected the King's House in Salisbury, England, in every way possible.
