A place to share cool castles!

Post images or any other content relating to castles, châteaux, palaces, towers, keeps, fortresses, and follies. The following content is encouraged but not required:

Castle name in native language (English name) - location [include country and region, if not city/town]
Best website (official or otherwise)
Some sort of map link
Visitation details: open/closed to public, closed but technically reachable, tours?, etc.
History: Whatever can be briefly copy-pasted

More than just images are welcome. Only real rule is that content must refer to a real-life structure, so please no fantasy/fictional castles! Reasonable exceptions include media showcasing period life and technology that somehow relates to castles.

Visited in 2016. It's worth seeing once despite being a "new" castle.

We got really lucky. It was snowing while we were there, but the trees had started showing green already. As we were leaving, the skies cleared up. It was so beautiful with the snow, the green trees, and the blue sky.

Man that was a great trip. 2 weeks touring Germany.
