Glückler, Patrick Burg Hohenzollern

How many rooms does Hohenzollern Castle have? How are the chandeliers lit? Where does the secret passage lead to? Answers to these and many other questions are given in this "Great Castle Guide". Picturesquely situated on a mountain cone, Hohenzollern Castle is visible from afar and attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors every year. It is the expression of a royal dream and the ancestral castle of the House of Hohenzollern. As an architectural masterpiece of the 19th century, the castle recently celebrated its 150th anniversary and yet there are still many new facets to discover.

This castle guide is suitable for all guests to the castle - for the historically interested visitor as well as for families and young people. With over 600 pictures and illustrations, it manages the balancing act between a coffee-table book, a historical reference work and a collection of stories and anecdotes about the castle. The reader is accompanied through the interior rooms, the treasure chamber and to the castle's exterior with its bastions - from the highest tower spire to the deepest rock cellar, the view extends and a completely new, detailed and comprehensive picture of the building and its eventful history emerges.
