- 10 Magnificent Fairy Tale Castles from Around the World! | Amazing Earth
This a list of some of the most beautiful and impressive castles still standing today that look as if they were taken from a fairy tale book.
Alcazar of Segovia, Spain
Coming in first in our list of 10 magnificent fairy tale like castles from around the world, we have Alcazar of Segovia, a unique palace located at the top of the Guadarrama Mountains. Built on Roman foundations, it was used as a royal palace, a royal artillery college, state prison and also as a military academy!
Bobolice Castle, Poland
The royal Castle Bobolice is one of the most beautiful fortresses on the Eagles’ Nests trail. It has born witness to a stormy history and has been the object of an extraordinary metamorphosis. During the last 13 years this fairy tale looking castle was meticulously reconstructed, so that its prosperity could be seen once more in its full splendor.
Bouzov Castle, Czech Republic
The Bouzov Castle is one of the most visited castles in the Czech Republic and a magnificent fortress that has never gone to ruin in all of its history. It was built on a hill in Moravia, Czech Republic, as a Gothic stronghold in the early 14th century. This fairy tale castle is a great tourist attraction in the Czech Republic, offering various tours and even an exhibition of Dragons and Dragonslayers, devoted to life-sized fairytale dragons and the knights who fought them!
Cochem Castle, Germany
It is generally assumed that Cochem Castle was built around the year 1000 by the palatinate count Ezzo, son and successor to palatinate count Hermann Pusilius. The castle had a long and colorful history until French King Louis XIV had his troops obliterate it in 1689. The castle remained a colorful stone ruin for 180 years until wealthy Berlin businessman Louis Ravené decided to buy the ruins and rebuild the castle in 1868.!
Corvin Castle, Romania
The Corvin Castle, also known as Hunyad Castle, was built during the 14th century and is considered as one of the most impressive medieval constructions in Romania. This beautiful fairy tale castle features a sumptuous Knights' Hall, an impressive drawbridge, high buttresses and inner courtyards, all resplendent with medieval art.
Glücksburg Castle, Germany
Glücksburg Castle is the ancestral home of the Dukes of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburg, and has been used occasionally by the Danish Kings. Nicknamed the Wasserschloss ('water castle') owing to its position in the middle of a lake, it is one of the most important Renaissance castles in northern Europe. The castle was built from 1582 to 1587 by Nikolaus Karie for John II, Duke of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg, at the site of a former monastery.
Hohenzollern Castle, Germany
Hohenzollern Castle is situated at the summit of a Swabian hill overlooking the small town of Hechingen in Germany. While its foundations are a millennium old, the castle has been assaulted, torn down, built, and rebuilt, falling twice in furious bombardments from catapults, archers, and swordsmen. This idyllic castle looks like it was taken straight out of a fairy tale, with its tall towers and seven successive gates!
Neuschwanstein Castle, Germany
Neuschwanstein castle is located in Bavaria in Germany and was built in the 19th century for King Ludwig II of Bavaria, also known as the “Fairytale King”. Today Neuschwanstein, "the castle of the fairy-tale king", is one of the most popular of all the palaces and castles in Europe, visited every year by 1.4 million people!
Ooidonk Castle, Belgium
Located on the Lys River in Belgium, Ooidonk is a remarkable example of Flemish Renaissance castle built in the 13-14th century by the Lords of Nevele. The castle was completely destroyed by the troops of Maximillian of Austria in 1491, but it was reconstructed in 1501. The castle was burnt again in 1579 during the religious wars and was rebuilt in the Flemish-Spanish style you see today.
Wernigerode Castle, Germany
Wernigerode Castle (Schloss Wernigerode) is a stunning sight built during the 12th century that may make some feel as if they have been transported into a fairy tale world. The castle was rebuilt into a Renaissance fortress, in the 16th century and then rebuilt in the baroque style as a romantic castle residence during the 17th century.

Beautiful!
And there are much more very nice castle in alsace! One of the biggest and very beautiful can be found there!
I visited Neuschwanstein in June 1970...most amazing....also visited the Von Trapp family home
Beautiful shots, thank you! You mention King Ludwig as the 'Fairytale King" Never heard him called that. "Mad King Ludwig (pronounced so by his detractors for exactly the reason of this beautiful world heritage site, which they called him crazy for building, castles and palaces out of style by then for more than decoration!) I've heard, but not that one. I like it. It's kinder for a man who made something beautiful.
WOOOOW ALL AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL PLACES I'D LOVE TO SEE THOSE IN PERSON
You forgot to mention a lot of fairy tale castle from France and from England.
Incredible, wonderful, I'd like to see a lengthy tour of each of these fantastic castles, and I should know because I'm a Castleberry!
It's hard to see the pics when you have to focus on the reading...
Amazing beauty....My fave was the last pix ~
Beautiful
As a matter of fact, Bouzov is not an example of medieval architecture. It was rebuilt between 1895 and 1910. So 125 years ago, it would not be recognizable at all. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bouzov_Castle
The castle in the thumbnail. Which one? Lord of the Rings?
You should include Bojnice Castle, Slovakia.
That's a beauty. The one in Salzburg is great too. There are a couple of others I would include. Some people seem to mix palaces with castles though.
Yes and as well Orava castle
Nice castles! :)
What is a life-sized dragon ? ;-)
Sehr schön!
"10 Magnificent Fairy Tale Castles from Around the World!"
I don't know where exactly you live but 'the world' does not equal 'the Europe'. The majority of of these castles are located in Deutschland. And I don't question that, out of all European countries Germany has probably the most stunning medieval castles. Nevertheless, the titile is deceiving and this is what I criticise.
Btw, where are the extremely famous Polish castles (Malbork, Moszna), Romanian (Bram), French (St. Michel's), Slovakian (Orava), Ukrainian (Swallow's Nest), Japanese (Himeji), English (Windsor), Irish (Blarney), and so on?
Also all of them but the japanese are in Europe
Never mind: The video is about fairy tale castle not about the most internet famous castle.

No enough palaces I need princess now
Were is the Tower of London. Built as a Fortress by William the Conqueror?
You forgot Dracula's castle
You could do "10 most ..etc." 10 times with castles and palaces tho'. Some great ones aren't going to make such a small list.
@@easyjdier The title is Fairy Tales Castles
Wer ist noch alles aus Deutschland?😂👍
You should include Peles Castle, Romania, it looks like a fairy tale castle .
It's too bad your captions take longer to read then they are up!!
The Bobolice Castle just looks like a LightHouse . . .
Alfonso VIII was the king of Castile and king of Toledo; he was not an emperor at all.
Edinburgh Castle?
No commentary -- cant appreciate the footage if you read the information captions
Glucksburg castle horrible!
the thumbnail tho😂
Title is VERY deceiving, should be renamed Castles of Germany And Nearby Countries.
Or, you know, "Central European" castles, because that's a thing...
Well, German castles are really the best and Germany has the most actually functioning castles, unlike UK that has almost only the ruins
@@dustgreylynx I love German castles but I think France got the best castles, very well preserved
@@dustgreylynx Regarding France, would you seriously argue that there was a reason for not including stuff like these

Some choices on his list were clearly oriented.
@@xenotypos that's an interesting building, but it doesn't fall into breathtaking category
Kasteel de Haar
I can't believe Winterfell didn't make the cut
give us more time to read without pausing
I don't understand all the carping about so many of the "fairy tale castles" being in Germany. A video has only so much space and cannot include everyone's favorite. I would liked to have seen Karlstein castle in Czechia, Fredericksborg in Denmark, etc. I only wish the English had been better. Maybe next time.
You have to make Dragon Ball Xenoverse 3 this year you have to because there's so many things you left out of Xenoverse 1 and 2 particularly the main characters of Xenoverse 1 and 2 meaning Super Saiyan 4 mira and demigra both versions playable
Built on roman foundations !
Trakai Island Castle, Lithuania
Very pro-German selection.
strange where are Versailles, chambord, carcassonne, chenoncaud?
those are palaces, not castles
Why don't we build castle anymore?
Game of Thrones at 6:08

Bojnice Castle from Slovakia definitely looks like fairytale castle. I am surprised you forgot to mention this castle. 😡
