Belvoir Castle
Belvoir Castle is an early 19th-century Gothic Revival mock castle and stately home in Leicestershire, England, and the seat of the Dukes of Rutland. The present building was rebuilt after an 1816 fire and largely completed by 1832; it sits on a prominent hilltop overlooking the Vale of Belvoir and contains notable state rooms and a ducal mausoleum adjacent to the house.
