| Description |
Neuschwanstein Castle (German: Schloss Neuschwanstein, lit. New Swan Stone palace) is a 19th-century Bavarian palace on a rugged hill near Hohenschwangau and Füssen in southwest Bavaria, Germany. The palace was commissioned by Ludwig II of Bavaria as a retreat and as an homage to Richard Wagner, the King's inspiring muse. Although public photography of the interior is not permitted, it is the most photographed building in Germany and is one of the country's most popular tourist destinations. Ludwig did not allow visitors to his castles, but since its opening in 1886, over 50 million people have visited the Neuschwanstein Castle. About 1.3 million people visit annually, with up to 6,000 per day in the summer. The palace has appeared in several movies, and was the inspiration for the Sleeping Beauty Castle in Disneyland. The palace is owned by the state of Bavaria, unlike Hohenschwangau Castle, which is owned by Franz, Duke of Bavaria. The Free State of Bavaria has spent over €14.5 million on Neuschwanstein's maintenance, renovation, and visitor services since 1990. Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuschwanstein_Castle |
