Heurich House (Brewmaster's Castle) ghost lore

The Heurich House Museum (also called Brewmaster's Castle), built in 1892 and now a museum, is associated in local guides and tour literature with anecdotal reports of unexplained noises and sightings by staff and some visitors; these accounts are presented as folklore rather than verified facts. The house documents the life and business of brewer Christian Heurich and preserves period interiors while occasionally featuring public programs that note its ghost-story reputation. The museum is located in the Dupont Circle neighborhood and is managed with historical interpretation and preservation.
