Nestled in the countryside of Kalutara, Richmond Castle is one of Sri Lanka's most striking Edwardian mansions. Built in the early 1900s, this historic estate sits on a hill just 2 km from Kalutara town, offering a rare glimpse into the architectural tastes and lifestyle of the island's landed gentry from that era.

The castle was the private residence of the local baron Don Arthur de Silva Wijesinghe Siriwardena, whose 42-acre estate commanded the surrounding landscape. Today, the grounds are open to the public, welcoming visitors who wish to explore the heritage and quiet grandeur of this remarkable property.
