Neuwanstein
Neuschwanstein Castle is a 19th-century palace on a rugged hill above the village of Hohenschwagau near Fussen in southwest Bavaria. The palace was commissioned by Ludwig II as a retreat, contrary to common belief. The palace was intended as a personal refuge for the reclusive king, but it was opened to the paying public immediately after his death in 1886. The palace has appeared prominently in several movies and was the inspiration for Disneyland’s Cinderella Castle.
Hohenschqangau Castle
Hohenschwangau Castle or Schloss Hohenschwangau is a 19th century palace . It was the childhood residence of King Ludwig II and was built by his father, King Mazimilian II. It was built on the remains of the fortress Schuangau,. A family of knights was responsible for the construction of the medieval fortress, and it served as the seat of the local government of Schwangau. In 1523, the schloss was described as having walls which were too thin to be useful for defensive purposes. After the demise of the knights in the 16th century the fortress changed hands several times. The decay of the fortress continued until it finally fell into ruins at the beginning of the 19th century.
