Swallow’s Nest is a decorative castle located on the Crimean peninsula in southern Ukraine. The castle was built between 1911-1912 by a German noble and is perched on top of Aurora Cliff. Swallow’s Nest was constructed in a Neo-Gothic style, designed by Russian architect Leonid Sherwood. The castle overlooks the Cape of Ai-Todor of the Black Sea. An observation deck rings the building, providing a view of the sea and Yalta’s shoreline. The building is compact in size and is one of the most popular destinations for people visiting Crimea.
