Stop At: Schloss Neuschwanstein, Neuschwansteinstrasse 20, 87645 Schwangau, Bavaria Germany
Castle NEUSCHWANSTEIN - dream destination of countless travellers from all over the world! No building in Germany is visited more often than Ludwig's most famous fairytale castle, which began construction in 1869.
It was dedicated to Ludwig's favorite composer Richard Wagner; the neo-Romanesque facade deceives the fact that the progressive king had it built as a high-tech castle.
During the 35-minute guided tour of the castle, you will be shown all the completed living rooms of the king. On the following 15-minute way to the exit you will pass through one of the unfinished floors, after which you will see the unusually modern kitchen of the castle as well as the planned bathroom.
Skip-the-Line tickets are already included in the travel price!

From the bridge you'll reach the castle entrance within a 20-minute walk downhill and pass one more magnificent viewpoint!
