A castle like something out of a book. And in this case, that's actually true. The inspiration and model for rebuilding the Lichtenstein ruins in 1842 came from the castle in Wilhelm Hauff's novel "Lichtenstein" from 1826. And that's exactly what it looks like: a real fairytale castle, built dangerously close to the slope.

You really should not miss the "Swabian Neuschwanstein" when you're in this corner of the Alb.
Our castle tour was good. A few nice anecdotes, would have liked to be a bit looser, but you were not showered with historical data and pedigrees. The rooms are consistently worth seeing and where else do you see a real Samurai armor? ;)
