Beautiful structure design! Nice Photo :)

Thanks, the little Kodak was small and could slip in a pocket

Today, those castles are a tourist goldmine, but they ruined Bavaria. If mad king Ludwig II. didn't build them, Bavaria would probably still be a seperate country.

True. Ludwig didn't finish one of the castles. He was a brilliant inventor, but mad as a a hatter. He bankrupted the country.

...and got a huge credit from Prussia in exchange for supporting their will to unify the German countries. Thus Bavaria not only lost a lot of money, but also the right to be a independant kingdom.
I think he wasn't able to finish most of his castles, because he started building some of them simultanously. Herrenchiemsee is the most obvious, but Neuschwanstein has a lot of blank rooms, too.

Linderhof was his best - homey - castle. The remainder have unfinished areas. I enjoyed touring all of the castles, but I could live in Linderhof. Neuschwanstein has too many steps, but his Peacock throne room is superb.

I took literally thousands of photos. They are stuck upstairs and God only knows what they are under.

wow... nice place...

That floor looks very slippery

WEEEeeeeee...

It's magnificent. The detail, and architecture you captured is superb. Bravo Krystalgazer.

Wow beautiful!

Visited 3 of his castles, some very impressive stuff. He may have been "mad" but he sure knew how to spruce up a castle/palace.
