Neuschwanstein Castle is one of the most famous fantasy
castles to date. The structure was restored by King Ludwig
II—a king known for living in a fantasy world beyond reality.
King Ludwig II spent a lot of time in the mountains, traveling
at night in elaborate coaches and sleighs and sometimes, in
historic costume. Above all, he enjoyed private performances
of operas and plays, particularly the operas of Richard Wagner.
As a result of his inspiration, the operas of Richard Wagner are
displayed in various rooms of the castle. Others are painted
with scenes from Sigurd, Gudrun, Tristan and Isolde, Parsifal
and Tannhauser.
