The Historical Loveland Castle & Museum

Chateau Laroche was built as an expression and reminder of the simple strength and rugged grandeur of the mighty men who lived when Knighthood was in flower.

It was their knightly zeal for honor, valor and manly purity that lifted mankind out of the moral midnight of the dark ages and started it towards the gray dawn of human hope.
Present human decadence proves a need for similar action. 
Already the ancient organization of Knights have been re-activated to save society.
Any man of high ideas who wishes to help save civilization is invited to become a member of the Knights of the Golden Trail,  whose only vows are the Ten Commandments.

Chateau Laroche is the World headquarters of this organization, started in 1927.

Regular admission price is $ 3.00 per person.

Our Mission

Modern Knighthood

Nothing that God ever made on the earth is more awe inspiring and heart warming than the sight of a noble youth just budding into manhood, clean minded, honest, honorable, gentle, living in God's image, and humbly conscious of his approval. Save Gods own direct son, such a young man is the highest achievement, to be counted his friend, is probably the greatest of life's rewards. It makes one want to bow in reverence of the Creators handiwork, to know such a youth and worship and thank God for the privilege of being counted in the same category of His creatures. Thank God there are such young men. They are the saviors of mankind.
