A castle with an interesting history
Castles are both strong and beautiful. They make us think of a time when kings ruled and knights bravely fought in battles. Just like many of us, King Ludwig II of Bavaria also loved these stories, and he loved designing his own castles.
In 1868, he decided to build a castle that could help him escape from the public. He thought the perfect place to build it was on top of a mountain. However, there were already two castles on that mountain peak at the time, so they were destroyed to make room for his castle. He named it Neuschwanstein Castle. The new castle was meant to have more than 200 rooms, but only or so were ever finished.
