A community portal about Bavaria with blogs, videos, and photos. According to Wikipedia.org: The Free State of Bavaria, with an area of 70,553 km and 12.4 million inhabitants, forms the southernmost state of today's Germany. Its capital is Munich.
Hohenschwangau Castle
The present castle, where King Ludwig II of Bavaria spent his childhood has been built during the reign of his father Maximilian of Bavaria , who in 1832 commissioned the renovation of medieval ruins of former castle Schwanstein. The new building followed the neo-ghotic style of Domenico Quaglio.
The works were finished in 1937, and Schloss Hohenschwangau became the official summer residence of king Maximilian , his wife Marie and two sons Ludwig and Otto ( later Otto I of Bavaria).
After death of his father in 1864 Ludwig became the next King of Bavaria, and later started to build his own castle nearby, the famous Neuschwanstein.
