Heublein Tower At Talcott Mountain, Connecticut
Heublein Tower, originally referred to as Heublein Castle, was built by Gilbert Heublein as a summer home and gift to his wife-to-be. Today, the castle located atop Talcott Mountain, or as some would say Avon Mountain, on the Metcomet Trail, in Talcott Mountain State Park is a popular place to hike for panoramic views. I pieced together this footage after hiking up the trail on a crisp summer day. At the start of the first video footage, some background noise of others on the trail will be heard, but once I enter the castle, or tower if you prefer, the filming was relatively devoid of background voices though occasional natural echoing from the stone walls from within the castle are somewhat audible. I narrated the video footage while taking the clips and took some photos as well to insert when later stringing together the video footage. Today, the castle is listed on the National Registry of Historic Sites and is opened to the public in good weather usually starting Memorial Day at the end of May and running through to October when the park is in peak foliage for the autumn colors.
For those interested in when the castle was first built, construction started in 1914 and ended in 1917. The castle was modeled to look like a Bavarian Castle, which explains its towering height and narrow structure.
Some additional information from the Talcott Mountain State Park's website provides information about Talcott Ridge, where Heublein Tower is located:
The 1,000-foot high promontory provides a splendid view of the Connecticut landscape. On the horizon, Mount Monadnock, eighty miles away in New Hampshire, is discernible. To the northwest, the Berkshires dominate the horizon. Long Island Sound is revealed as a thin blue streak to the south. Those with sharp vision can see an area estimated to be 1,200 square miles.
In 1999, The New York Times ran a review of the tower, calling it Tower of Romance, Tower of History. Find the review at:
Hartford Connecticut downtown skyscrapers - continuous aerial 4K drone panorama footage using Litchi
Sometimes there is no wind, the lighting conditions are favorable, the selected flight path is just right... and in the end, there is no need to cut the video into pieces - the whole flight is enjoyable to watch. At least, to me. Hartford downtown on Saturday afternoon, half-empty as usual on weekends. Notice the Bushnell Park skating rink at 3:09 though! Music by Jean-Jacques Goldman.

The museum was established in 1929 as the Marine Historical Association. Its first fame came with the acquisition in 1941 of the Charles W. Morgan, the only surviving wooden sailing whaler. The seaport was one of the first living history museums in the United States, with a collection of buildings and craftsmen to show how work was done. The seaport now receives about 400,000 visitors each year.
In addition, it supports research via an extensive library; runs the Frank C. Munson Institute of American Maritime Studies, a summer graduate-level academic program, established in 1955 by maritime historian Professor Robert G. Albion of Harvard University; and, in conjunction with Williams College, hosts Williams–Mystic, an undergraduate program in maritime studies. Outreach includes sailing classes for area children.
Mystic Seaport or Mystic Seaport: The Museum of America and the Sea, in Mystic, Connecticut, is the largest maritime museum in the world. It is notable for its collection of sailing ships and boats, and for the re-creation of the crafts and fabric of an entire 19th-century seafaring village. It consists of more than 60 original historic buildings, most of them rare commercial structures moved to the 17-acre (0.069 km2) site and meticulously restored,More Info

New-Gate prison & Copper Mine ~ Granby, Ct.
Finally got up here to check this place out. Have seen a few vids of this great old prison & copper mine and decided to fully explore it during the off season and when no tourists would be there. To me, the brickwork was amazing and the vibe of this prison was nothing less than historical and you get a feeling of what it was like to be incarcerated back in the day. Had fun on this explore and this video is just my fun take on such a fantastic site. Happy Exploring
