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!
