Casa Loma was a large mansion, built on bluffs that overlook Toronto, Ontario, that was built for Henry Pellatt in 1911.

The mansion was built to look something like a medieval castle, and that look has been exploited as a set for many movies.

Pellatt lost most of his fortune in the 1929 stock market crash, and the building fell into public hands. Since then it has served as a museum.
