    Job Description

    About Hearst Castle:?

    Hearst Castle overlooks the village of San Simeon & was built in 1919. The complex includes a twin-towered main building, three sumptuous guesthouses, and 127acres of terraced gardens, fountains, and pools.?

    The fanciful Gothic Study is the centerpiece of Hearst's private suite on the third floor of 'Casa Grande' - the main building of the hilltop estate at San Simeon. Theconcrete arches were decorated by Camille Solon in 1934-35, but the historic Spanish ceiling dates from the early 1400s.?

    The world-famous outdoor swimming pool at Hearst Castle was refilled in August 2018 after two years of restoration and repair. With water that refracts light to createa brilliant turquoise hue, the Neptune Pool is a photographer?s delight.
