New Swanstone Castle or Neuschwanstein in German is famous for being the prototype of the castle in Disney's Sleeping Beauty. The sender of the postcard wrote:
Schloss Neuschwanstein, built for the "mad king Ludwig of Bavaria".
He had 4 castles built, each one better than the last.
Thanks to his obsession for romantic beauty though! Now Germany has this structure that drives in a lot of tourism for that part of the country.

Hi Maria .. what a great N ... and the romance you can see in the Schloss Neuschwantein does make us realise why Disney created his ideas from these ... lovely photo - cheers Hilary
