Sylvania Castle is a zone that appears in Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode II. It's the first stage of the episode and the sixth of the full game. It is preceded by E.G.G. Station Zone from Episode I followed by White Park Zone. As the name implies, it is an ancient castle that is full of traps by a lake that has fallen into despair and has flooded through the years. The stage's appearance is a hybrid between Aquatic Ruin Zone from Sonic the Hedgehog 2 and Marble Garden Zone from Sonic the Hedgehog 3 It even takes an idea from both of the zones with the underwater sections from Aquatic Ruin Zone and the spinning wheel obstacle from Marble Garden Zone.

They decide to land on the grassy lands, trying to see what might unveil there.

TriviaEdit
- The name of this stage may be a shortening of Transylvania. Also, "Sylvania" literally means "forest land" in Latin, as the ruined castle is surrounded by a dense forest.
- The level also bears a strong resemblance to Kingdom Valley in Sonic the Hedgehog (2006). Kingdom Valley was often noted as somewhat resembling Aquatic Ruin Zone.
- As the player progresses from Act 1 to Act 3, the setting of this stage changes from day to night. This is similar to Splash Hill Zone from Episode I where the stage started out as in daylight until the third act which changes to a sunset setting.
- It is noted that Act 2's music contains nods to Aquatic Ruin Zone as well as Sonic & Knuckles' Flying Battery Zone.
- Act 3's Music sounds similar to the Shop Menu in Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing.
