Hohenschwangau Castle
Hohenschwangau Castle was built in the 1830s by Crown Prince Maximilian of Bavaria on the ruins of a medieval fortress, in a Neo-Gothic style evoking knightly legends. It was the childhood home of his son, King Ludwig II, who later built Neuschwanstein on the hilltop opposite. Its rooms, painted with medieval sagas, remain largely in their original 19th-century state.
