View of Neuschwanstein Castle

Highlight • Castle

Best-known postcard motif in Germany? At least close! It can be crowded here, but a visit to the extravagant and beautiful castle definitely pays off.

View of Neuschwanstein Castle and the Pöllat Waterfall from the Marienbrücke (Marien Bridge)

The Marienbrücke is the most popular viewpoint of Neuschwanstein Castle. Hundreds of people usually crowd here, taking pictures, posing, and enjoying the fabulous view. This is also the most famous photo spot around the castle with a fantastic view of the castle, its location, and with a view of the flat hilly landscape behind it.

The weather forecast predicted a rain-free gap in the afternoon, which we were able to use after a visit to the "Hohes Schloss" and the city center of Füssen to dare the ascent to the Marienbrücke. You can only get to the castle after pre-ordering (current dates will be available in May 😒).
