Underrated Castles


If one were to think of Germany's castles, Neuschwanstein Castle comes into mind. However, there are two other castles that deserve respect. They are Hohenzollern Castle and Hohenschwangau Castle. Here are some fun facts about these underrated castles.

Did you know that southern Germany sits near a known earthquake-prone area? In 1990, a rare earthquake damaged Hohenzollern Castle, and the castle was under repair until the mid-1990s.

The Hohenschwangau Castle, which used to be the childhood home of King Ludwig II, survived World War II undamaged. You can even see it and the nearby Hohenschwangau Village from Neuschwanstein Castle.

If anyone were to visit Germany, please consider visiting these two underrated castles as well.
