I think we had a Neuschwanstein jigsaw puzzle when I was a kid, so this spot is definitely etched in my memory. That’s a beautiful shot of the castle through the bridge with the locks. Thanks for the great tips for what to enjoy around this site!
A visit to Neuschwanstein is to be had! I would think that visiting it in the winter time is far better, it must looks very beautiful covered in snow with the backdrop of snow-capped mountains.
Looks like a real fairytale castle. No wonder Walt Disney was inspired by it! Would love to see the inside, so this is one more place to visit on my list. 🙂
I love my visit here years ago, and I still can’t believe that it isn’t more popular or famous than it actually is given how recognisable it is. And I totally agree about spending time in Fussen!
I’m so sad we missed Neuschwanstein while in Germany last fall – there is so much to see in the world it’s sometimes a bit overwhelming. Love that shot of the castle through the bridge grating 🙂
It is true that there´s such a lot to see in the world but maybe you have another chance to come back to Germany and/or Austria to see more from the region.
would love to go there! Will definitely take your advice and go in winter, maybe winter this year!! We should be around there at around that time, well Oktoberfest anyway.
I guess it´s not that crowded any more in September but I have no idea. I´m sure it depends on the weather conditions too. Hope you´re having a good time at the Oktoberfest and the Neuschwanstein Castle, Laura.
Neuschwanstein is the mostbeautiful castle in the world !!
Fantastic !!
At least the most famous castle in the world. 😀
Great you like it a lot.
Ooh, great tip about the KristallTherme!Thermal baths with a stunning world class view? I’m in!
Especially during winter time when everything is covered in snow is a great time to be in the outdoor pool looking at the Neuschwanstein Castle.

Thanks, Dave.
Seems like a beautiful place to visit. I came across this place via someone’s blog last week. Its definitely going on the list!
It is a beautiful place. I like the region around a lot especially the lakes and mountains.

It is. Altough I heard the Marienbridge is closed during winter time when there is lots of snow.

The inside is beautiful as well but you are not allowed to take pictures or film it that´s why I only have pictures about the outside of the castle.
What a beautiful castle, I’d love to visit! Great tips 🙂
Thank you, Emily. Great you liked the tips.

It is very famous and popular at least in Europe and Japan. There are lots of visitors from Japan and Asia every year.

I’ve always wanted to see Neuschwanstein – those German castles are amazing.
They are but not only the German ones…:)
Amazing! I visited Neuschwanstein as a child and this brought back great memories!
That´s great if it were good memories.
It’s on my list! I can’t wait to see it! Thanks for the timely post!
You´re welcome, Jen. Hope it helped you.
I, too, really enjoyed that photo through the locks on the bridge. Great, unexpected, view of an often photographed site.
Thank you so much.
I love castles! I haven’t ever seen one but this one is on my list, it looks beautiful
There are more castles of King Ludwig in Germany. If you visit Neuschwanstein you might want to see the others too. Very impressive.
Look like a lovely place to visit! I have seen lots of castles but I would love to visit this one too! Especially if the weather is nice :)!
That´s a good point. Especially in winter or fall it can be chilly inside the castle. Hopefully you WILL have good weather, Elena.
I’m really looking forward to checking out all the old castles when I finally get to Europe!
If you want to check out all the old castles you have to spend years in Europe. 😀
EEk! This is fab! We are riding there from Prague in a couple of weeks on the Harley! Getting excited now! Thanks for the tips!
You´re welcome. Hope you´re having a great time.
I love Chitty Chitty Bang Bang so will definitely have to visit. Thanks for the tips
You´re welcome Michele. I recently saw Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. It´s a wonderful movie.

Lovely photo looks like a fairytale, id love to see that castle one day 🙂
Oh wow, Amazing! This is on our bucketlist!
Avoid the summer time if possible. It´s very crowded then.
Fairy tale castle indeed! The landscape surrounding it is equally magical!
