6 reviews of Herrenchiemsee Castle

Fairy tale palace

The Schloss Herrenchiemsee is on an island in the lake Chiemsee in southern Bavaria. It's 1 of the three palaces built by the Bavarian King Ludwig II (Mad King). It is not as well known as Neuschwanstein, but is still worth seeing. Inspired by the Palace of Versailles, with Lugwig II built this palace to pay homage to Louis XIV of France, whom he ardently admired. It has over seventy rooms, although it's not finished, as the king ran out of money. The part of the palace which is finished is well worth a visit. Ludwig II of Bavaria only lived there for 14 days, before his untimely and accidental death.
