Castles
We are sure you all have
seen the the
Sleeping Beauty Castle

is the real deal, the
Neuschwanstein. This
castle served as the
inspiration for the
castle at Disneyland!
Perched up on a mountain
top, this castle is visible for
miles around. Go and
take a tour through its
halls and corridors and
peer out the windows as
you look over the
European lands.

High above the Schambach
valley there lies a
castle full of history
which first was
mentioned in historical
books in 982. The Castle
of Hexenagger has been
part of the royal family
Weidenbach since 1834.
Various events take
place here throughout
the year including the
very popular vending
fair "Garden and Nature"

Places

Berchtesgaden is well known as Hitler's mountain retreat and the southern headquarters of the Nazi party. Due to the World War II bombings by the Royal Air Force, there is little evidence left of Hitler and the Nazi party's presence, however Eagle's Nest still stands. Eagle's Nest is a mountain top lodge built by the Nazis, and is a major drawcard for the region. Located at 6,148 feet (1,834 meters) on top of Mt Kehlstein, the lodge has some of Germany's most amazing views of the Alps mountain range. Ironically, Hitler suffered vertigo and rarely took pleasure in the views.
Located
near Berchtesgarden, the Weiss-Blaue Flotte
uses 21 electric powered
boats to transport
tourists as they come by the bus load from Munich and Salzburg which are close by. The lake located in the Bavarian Alps is bounded on one side by the Watzmann Est Face which reaches a peak of 1800 meters. In this true Alpine setting the lake is approximately 190 meters deep and is considered the cleanest lake in Germany.
