Neuschwanstein Castle || The Most Famous Building of Historicism in Germany

Neuschwanstein Castle – Schwangau
Neuschwanstein Castle was built by the Bavarian King Ludwig II in 1869. For him, his castle was a monument to the culture and royalty of the Middle Ages. Built and equipped in medieval forms, but with the most modern technology of the time, it is the most famous building of historicism and the epitome of German idealism.

It is located in the Swabia region of Bavaria, in the municipality of Schwangau, above the incorporated village of Hohenschwangau, which is also the location of Hohenschwangau Castle. The closest larger town is Füssen.
