“Few places on Earth look more like a storybook illustration than Neuschwanstein Castle with its towers, turrets, frescoes, and throne hall looks like it was plucked straight from your favorite fairytale but the story behind this over-the-top palace nestled in the Bavarian Alps in less idyllic”.
Addison Cullen and Jasper Hale wandered around Neuschwanstein Castle in Germany ignoring the humans as she read information from her phone, her hand locked with his.
“King Ludwig II of Bavaria commissioned the cliffside castle in 1868 just two years after Austria and Bavaria were conquered by Prussia during the Austro-Prussian War, sometimes called the Seven Weeks War, effectively stripping him of his power. Ludwig II quickly retreated into a private fantasy world surrounding himself with opulent castles where he could live out of his dreams of being a true sovereign king”...
“Ludwig II unfortunately never saw the final Neuschwanstein Castle according to the Bavarian Castle Administration because he died in 1886 and the final towers were not completed until 1892 but within weeks of his sudden and mysterious death. The magnificent castle was opened to the public where it quickly became one of the region's most visited attractions…
Jasper wrapped his arms around her waist as she paused staring out the tower window at the snow-covered mountains feeling completely at ease and it was only their first stop on their vacation before they went to their home in Texas for the last days of February and then home to Forks…
“How do you think the humans would react if they knew Ludwig II was a vampire?” He whispered in her ear before playfully nipping her neck making her giggle, “it would make his death a lot more mysterious”...
