Burg Hohenzollern
Sight / Castle
As the ancestral seat of the Hohenzollern family, from which the kings of Prussia and the German emperors emerged, the castle complex is enthroned on the Zollernberg, on the edge of the Swabian Alb. It is one of the most beautiful and most visited castles in Europe. The first castle was built around the year 1000 and was later destroyed by the fraternal dispute between the Zoller counts Friedrich the Öttinger and Eitelfriedrich I. A second building was started around 1454, but it largely fell into disrepair over the centuries. The third castle was commissioned by the Prussian King Friedrich-Wilhelm IV. The foundation stone was laid in 1850. Unfortunately, he did not live to see it completed, as he died in 1861. His younger brother and successor, King Wilhelm I, inaugurated the new building in 1867. Incidentally, only half of the enormous costs were borne by Prussia. The two Swabian lines of the Hohenzollern took over the other half.
