The castle or palace was a set done with a real building- as trick Photography in that period would not do. ( characters were walking about) It was basically a stone building, had a divided anteroom or vestibule in front- and let"s face it take away the special effects, smoke screens and so on- it did resemble a CHURCH building. The doorman or guard character ( not the Wizard) had a costume that seemed to suggest that of a Bishop- some guys thought he looked like Saint Patrick- obviously Green uniform and mitre-like hat! very strange. Having to compare it to any real life structure it most resembled- a church edifice.

It is unknown what the Wicked Witch of the East's castle looks like in "The Wizard of Oz."

Specifically, the witch is a minor character in both the original 1900 book edition and the beloved 1939 film version of "The Wizard of Oz." She is killed within the first half-hour of the film and the first 30 pages of the book. She is not at her castle when she is smashed by Dorothy Gale's house being dropped by the dissipating cyclone in Oz.

The Castle was located in the fictitious Emerald City. They did not use a "real" castle for the movie.
