- Neuschwanstein Castle is located approximately 422km (262 miles) South of Frankfurt in the Bavarian hillside town of Füssen. If you think the castle looks a little familiar it's because it inspired Walt Disney's Sleeping Beauty! This royal castle was 1 of 3 owned by King Ludwig II, this one being his place to retreat during his troubled reign. With the Bavarian mountains as a backdrop, the grand castle which is built in the Neo-Gothic Revival style also boast beautiful views down to Hohenschwangau and across the Alpine foothills.

Located in the Franconia region in the heart of Bavaria, it still retains its historic city walls with turreted gates, half-timbered houses, cobbled streets, Town Hall from the Renaissance period, and the 500 year old Jakobskirche with magnificent altarpiece by Tilman Riemenschneider.
