I took this picture over the summer when I was on a road trip through Bavaria with my mom! This castle was built in the 1800s by King Ludwig II of Bavaria. He wanted everything to be extravagant, which is evident in the interior as well as the exterior of this castle. What is interesting about this castle is that it isn't completely finished yet. The interior is still being renovated, and the king will never get to see the finished product although it was his lifelong aspiration to build an extravagant castle for himself. This castle is the model for the Disney castle, which is why the blue pointy roof and the gray brick looks familiar to most visitors. This castle overlooks a nearby fort, also built by the same royal family. This was a very interesting castle to visit.
have you seen monuments men yet? Its in the movie and yes its extravagant but amazing for its time
