Castle Hohenschwangau is located at the base of Neuschwanstein castle so we see both of them at the same time. We do not usually tour the inside of the this palace but we do get to see it from the outside.
Perched dramatically on a rugged hill overlooking the Bavarian Alps, Neuschwanstein Castle is a breathtaking 19th-century palace commissioned by King Ludwig II. Often called the "fairytale castle," its romantic medieval architecture, complete with soaring turrets, ornate interiors, and stunning views, inspired Walt Disney's iconic castle. Though intended as a private retreat for the king, it was opened to the public shortly after his death and now captivates millions of visitors annually. Getting Up to Neuschwanstein Castle: On Foot: The most economical option, it's a steep but well-maintained paved walk that takes approximately 20 minutes. Shuttle Bus: Buses depart every 20 min. . From the bus stop, it's about a 10-15 minute downhill walk to the castle entrance. Tickets can be bought on the bus.
