GOLDSHIELD CASTLE
Nestled in the rustic North San Diego mountains, Goldshield Castle is the up-coming, multi-million dollar, life-long dream project of Keith Klundt, 62, a former award-winning agriculture teacher, well-respected building contractor, and successful business entrepreneur. The authentic-down-to-the-minute-detail Renaissance-style Goldshield Castle project is centered around the castle itself, to be located on an already-purchased highly-visable mountain in Valley Center, California, but will also include a working winery and extensive gardens. Expectations concerning the building of the castle (to be experienced as a Tuscan village of Southern Italy in 1350 to 1550 A.D.) is that it will take more than two years to complete. The exclusive, unique venue will serve as a backdrop for private events such as weddings, in-house original plays, various community clubs, a film location, and countless other multi-media educational and entertainment projects. The surrounding vistas at the top of the mountain include a vantage of Catalina Island to the border of Mexico. The weather, according to wikipedia, is that of a "Mediterranean climate". Nearby, within eye-shot, are both Harrah's and Valley View casinos.
Patricia and Randal Holmes of Placentia, California, are partners in the vineyards, which are already planted. Innovative film-maker and avant guard artist, Brother Andy, 57, has been named as Creative Director, while LA real estate agent and internet expert, Corey Chambers, 49, will act as consultant.
Notable local residents have included the likes of actress Mae West, Glen Bell (of Taco Bell), actor Gary Cooper, actor Steve Reeves and Fred Astaire.
This blog will report up-to-the-minute information concerning this historic venture, as well provide entertainment and educational media about a multitude of related subjects such as classic action-adverture films, book recommendations, and places of interest. Your participation is welcomed and encouraged!
