Another one of our afternoon trips from Tübingen was to this amazing castle, about a 30 minute drive from our place.
This is the Hohenzollern Castle from afar.
After hiking up a tremendously steep mountain, then still climbing up, passing over draw bridges and moats, we finally made it to the entrance of the castle.
It felt like we were in a Disney movie (a few scenes from Shrek come to mind).
The original castle was built in the 11th century for the Hohenzollern family, a royal family consisting of emperors from Prussia. It was destroyed a few times and reconstructed. It now holds special events and concerts for the community.
