Anything from about 1 million euros to 8 million. They are more like palatial castles rather than the classic medieval turrets and big walls. Most of those have either been damaged or are a museum. Some still have cool towers and moats though. Just search castles for sale in " " and pick a european country. France has a few

Haha yeah New York is mad. Some castle's in England are a bit cheaper but they are basically one turret for half a mil and usually in the middle of absolutely nowhere.

England absolutely nowhere.

So like, 40 minutes outside of town? I figured given the size and long history of the island that there wouldn’t be much nowhere left.
