Castle Phoenix and Sculpture Gardens

Castle Phoenix and Sculpture Gardens Francis Shepherd and Christina Kent are building a fairytale castle and surrounding art and sculpture gardens. This immense art project began in 2009.

These two have been working on this art project for over 14 years. The Castle build was started in 2010 and the sculptural gardens in 2008. Castle Phoenix was designed by artist Francis Shepherd who is also one of the owner builders. Partner of eighteen years, Christina Kent is the other owner builder. The Castle and surrounding sculpture gardens have been built by these two artists. The first co

ncrete slab was laid in March 2014. November 2016, the second slab was laid with the third and final slab being laid in January 2020. In 2020, the first two of eight concave conical rooftops were worked on. These unique shapes were designed by Francis. Also in 2020, Castle Phoenix partnered with Heritage Horse Drawn Carriages to provide guided tours. These tours ran for two years but have had to be suspended for the foreseeable future. Francis has taken over the guided tours of the Castle and gardens. Please call or text 0427 535 191 to book a thirty minute tour. This tourist attraction will benefit the local Geeveston community.

2022 - We have the steel framework for five rooftops installed. There are two Hebel block ceilings constructed. The first is a Gothic dome over the Stairwell. The second is a concave conical over Studio B which is the central top room. Soon we will be constructing the ceiling over Studio A to the right. https://sites.google.som/site/buildingcastlephoenix/home
