A fairytale comes to life, magnificent Neuschwanstein Castle started life as a rather extreme example of a lord’s folly. The building was commissioned in the 19th Century by “Mad” King Ludwig. Unfortunately for the King, who paid for the castle out of his personal fortune, he died before he could enjoy his grand design. Since that time, Schloss Neuschwanstein has become one of Germany’s most popular tourist attractions. Rising out of the Alpine forest near Füssen, its towering turrets were the inspiration for Walt Disney’s Sleeping Beauty.
Price from €16.30 per person

Approximately 470 metres east of the southern part of Schliersee near the village of Neuhaus
sit the ruins of Hohenwaldeck castle. The journey up to its 980-metre elevation offers some of

towards the end of the 13th century by the Lords of Waldeck. The Waldeck were servants to the
diocese of Freising but were able to build a largely independent rule after the construction of the
spur castle. During the 16th century, the death of the last Waldecker in the hands of the Lords
of Maxlrain had the castle change owners however by the time the somewhat violent exchange
took place the castle was already slipping into disrepair after a rockfall destroyed much of the
structure in 1480.
