This site is an independent publication and is not affiliated with the Bavarian Palace Administration.

Neuschwanstein Castle is one of the most visited landmarks in Europe, and its practical details — opening hours, admission rules, free days, temporary exhibitions — change often. This website collects that information in one place and keeps it up to date, so you can spend less time on logistics and more time in front of the paintings.

We are an independent editorial team based in Florence. The site is funded entirely by the advertising that brought you here; we do not sell tickets, take commissions on bookings or collect payments.

Editorial policy

  • Practical details are checked regularly against public museum information.
  • When details change, we update the relevant page — the “last updated” date on each article reflects that.
  • We never claim to represent the Bavarian Palace Administration: every page carries our disclaimer.
