Neuschwanstein

Neuschwanstein welcomes around 1.4 million visitors each year, making it one of the most popular of all the castles and palaces in Europe.

The shy King Ludwig II of Bavaria had this castle built as a fairy tale castle in order to withdraw from the public eye.

Just seven weeks after his death in 1886, his former retreat was opened to visitors and became a major attraction.
