Wow wow wow!
Now this is a German castle!
Not quite as impressive as the famous Neuschwanstein castle that the Disney castle was modeled after, but I think it might be number two in our book.
It’s definitely interesting touring through these castles and palaces to see the excessive opulence that the royals lived in, so much … excessiveness.
An easy trip from Stuttgart, and an absolute must-do!
Why We’re Here
This photo sums up why we’re living in Europe in a single shot! Colette takes time to admire the Sigmaringen Castle across the Danube River.
Center of Town
The Sigmaringen Castle towers above the surrounding buildings, as a true castle should!
The Gnome
Fierce little protectors of the castle.
Shining Armor
Probably a king or prince, and probably never fought in battle.
Burgundy
That is seriously burgundy, and seriously gaudy.
Thinning the Herd
It would be far more sporting if these were taken in a hand-to-hand fight.
Across the Water
Sigmaringen Castle is beautiful from the distance!
Whoopin’ Time
This is the look I get when this swan realized I don’t have any snacks to feed it. Might be time to back away from the water!
