Things to know
Schloss Neuschwanstein literally translates to "New Swan Stone castle", but was originally called New Hohenschwangau Castle.

As you might be able to tell from Neuschwanstein wall murals, this castle is rumored to be real-life inspiration for the one featured in the Disney classic "Cinderella". With its white limestone exterior and deep blue turrets you cannot deny that the resemblance is remarkable. It is hard to blame Walt Disney because it is a stunning building that has stood the test of time and reminds us of so many things.

History in Neuschwanstein wall murals
The aforementioned Ludwig II had a reputation as an eccentric and reclusive king, making it easy to see why Neuschwanstein is also called "the castle of the fairy-tale king". Seeing the images in Neuschwanstein wall murals, it is quite obvious why. Nonetheless, the general consensus is that Neuschwanstein was really built for political and deeply personal reasons. When Prussia emerged victorious from the Austro-Prussian War, it forced Bavaria to accept an alliance with the empire and King Ludwig II essentially lost his power. Neuschwanstein fundamentally became the centerpiece of Ludwig II's imagined kingdom, where he could still act as a true royal. Although construction of Neuschwanstein began in 1868, it was only in 1873 that parts of the castle could be occupied. The iconic Bower and Square Towers you see in Neuschwanstein wall murals were completed in 1892, nearly a quarter of a century after work on the castle began. By then, Ludwig II had already passed and the castle was opened to the public.
