The fairytale King, King Ludwig II of Bavaria by devjam
In the region of Garmisch-Partenkirchen you will find Castle Linderhof. One of three fairytale castles built by our best known King, Ludwig II of Bavaria.Linderhof was built as a hunting residence but was in the beginning supposed to be the 2nd Versaille. Because of there was not enough space between the mountains he decided to built a hunting residence.
His best known castle is Neuschwanstein. Disney Land/Florida has got a copie of this magnificient piece of architecture.
The third but nver finished castle is, what should have been a bigger any better Versaille, Herrenchiemsee. It's situated on the "Gentlemen Island" (Herreninsel) on the lake called Chiemsee. If you like fairytales or castles that remind you of the "knight on his horse" you really have to go see Neuschwanstein and the other castles.
