The house is "an eclectic estate that blends a variety of architectural styles from Byzantine to Tudor."[6] Construction was completed in 1896.[6] The castle is an architectural example of the Victorian Era. In 1976 Miramont Castle was added to the National Register of Historic Places[7] due to its significant historic heritage and architectural variety.[8][9][10] Sisters of Mercy operated Montcalm Sanitarium at Miramont,[11] sharing the property with Francolon.[6]{{#tag:ref|There's also a report that the Sisters acquired the dormant Miramont Castle in 1904, after Father Francolon had moved away in 1900.[12]|group="nb"}} Popular folklore has it that the castle is haunted with various apparitions and unexplained phenomenon as reported by visitors and staff.[12][13] CurrentThe house is now a Victorian-era historic house museum that is owned and operated by the Manitou Springs Historical Society. Visitors can tour 42 furnished rooms and gardens. The site also features a tea room and gift shop. Notes1. ^{{NRISref|2007a}} 2. ^Welcome to Miramont Castle. Miramontcastle.org.
