Review
this castle
Perched on a rock high above the valley floor, a product of the
romantic passion for castles in the nineteenth century. It was built from 1840
to 1841 by Duke Wihelm of Urach.

| Of the handful of castles I visited
while stationed in Germany (US Army) I found Castle Lichtenstein to be
the most romantic. The structure, location, and air of this castle
is what I had imagined in my mind when reading historical romance novels
during the Medieval Age with Knights and fair maidens whisked away to
their 'new home'. Absolutely beautiful! A true Castle. |

| This is a romantic fantasy castle like
Neuschwanstein, but in miniature. It captured my imagination more
than Neuschwanstein, though, because it was so compact and perfectly
proportioned. I have chosen it as my personal favorite. |

Not a soul was around and we were able to wander the grounds by
ourselves in approx. 8" of snow that covered everything like
whipped cream. It was cold and magnificent. We had to make a
trip later in the spring to tour the interior of the castle, but will
never forget our trek in the snow |

have not found one more captivating than Schloss Liechtenstein.
It's not the largest. It doesn't have the history of some others.
It was for me, however, the most aesthetically pleasing of them all.
Very romantic - without the crowds seen at the Bavarian castles.
There is just something special about this one. |

| I visited this castle when I was fourteen and it
was beautiful. There were a lot of tourists and the landscape was
absolutely fabulous! If you ever have the opportunity I suggest visiting
this castle, I hope to go back someday |
