 | | Neuschwanstein (German: Schloss Neuschwanstein, "new swan stone"; IPA pronunciation: /nɔy'ʃvanʃtain/) is a late 19th century castle in Germany, near Hohenschwangau and Füssen in southwest Bavaria, not far from the Austrian border. |
 | | The castle is located near Schloss Hohenschwangau, an older castle restored by Ludwig's father, Maximilian II of Bavaria. |
 | | Owing to his eccentricites and his perceived use of Bavarian funds (a myth, as Ludwig actually used his own money to finance the construction of the castle), Ludwig was removed from power before the castle was completed. |
