Karl had Amalienburg built and named after his wife, Maria Amalia. The Empress enjoyed hunting immensely, and the grounds of Nymphenburg were kept well stocked with pheasants and deer for the royal family to hunt.
Neuschwanstein might, in some minds, be the perfect representation of a medieval castle. It’s large, built on the top of a hill with a spectacular view with forest stretching out for miles around, and it has a decided look of a fairytale about it. One can easily imagine a princess living, sighing wistfully at her window, waiting for her knight in shining armour to return to her. For me, Neuschwanstein was baffling.
