The fairytale-like castle Neuschwanstein is, with 1.4 million visitors per year, one of the three most visited tourist attractions in Germany. The Disney castle is located in the village of Hohenschwangau in the hills of the green region Allgäu in Bavaria.

 

The construction of the idyllic castle was started in 1869 on behalf of the shy and eccentric King Ludwig II, who had this castle built to escape public life. The walls were made of brick with light-coloured limestone as decoration. After his passing in 1886 the construction was paused and the fairytale castle was opened to the public. Walt Disney visited this castle and used it as inspiration for the castle of Sleeping Beauty in Disneyland.

Since the castle was not intended as a royal representation, but for the relaxation of the King, Ludwig II created his own dream world; a poetic world of the Middle Ages. Images were inspired by Wagner's operas and are about love and guilt and about repentance and redemption. Three main figures are frequently repeated: the poet Tannhäuser, the swan knight Logengrin and his father, the Grail King Parsifal. In addition, you will repeatedly see a swan (Schwan) portrayed: symbol of purity and a symbol of the tombs of Schwangau. Both the inside and the outside of the castle will surprise you.

 

The castle has more than 200 rooms, of which only 15 are fully finished. On the lower floors, for example, were the service areas for the staff. During your tour you will mainly visit the third and fourth floor with the King's most important quarters. The second floor was never finished and now contains a shop, cafetaria and multimedia area. You will probably experience one of the nicest views you have ever seen in a castle.
