Description: Three original 4x5" Kodak photograph negatives of the Oechsner's Dream Island Castle in Williamsville, NY. Taken in 1940s 1950s 1960s. Nice detail and NY history. Currently being restored -yay! ONLINE INFO - Oechsner's Dream Island (a.k.a the Williamsville Castle or Cambria Castle) is located on a two acre island in Ellicott Creek. The limestone structures were built by hand by Ignatz Oechsner between 1917 and 1945 in homage to his Bavarian homeland. Oechsner also created extensive gardens, paths, stone walls, steps, art, fountains, bridges and even a moat. After a fire destroyed the inside in 1956, the castle was refurnished to accommodate the new family that was living there at the time. In the many years since the island has fallen into disrepair, with many of Oechsner's original structures beginning to become overgrown and fail. https://www.williamsvillecastle.com/ The word wingstar is not on the photos.
