Schloss-hopping around Bavaria: Schloss Neuschwanstein

Neuschwanstein Castle is a 19th-century Romanesque Revival palace in southwest Bavaria, Germany. 

The palace was commissioned by Ludwig II of Bavaria as a retreat and in honour of Richard Wagner. Ludwig paid for the palace out of his personal fortune and by means of extensive borrowing, rather than Bavarian public funds.

Hohenschwangau Castle or Schloss Hohenschwangau  is a 19th-century palace in southern Germany. It was the childhood residence of King Ludwig II of Bavaria and was built by his father, King Maximilian II of Bavaria. 

The town at times can feel like a tourist trap with limited restaurants so we ended up at one of the few open places. I had a schitnzel and my wife a grilled chicken.
