Well, let's just say I found the site much more impressive than the exhibits. But the castle was well worth visiting!
Inside the fortress - this may have been a maut at some time.
The fortified outer wall.
Looking through a gateway at the outer wall.
View from the burg to the city and the river Isar below.
Isn't this a cool window?
There were such interesting architectual details everywhere.
The galleries of the castle, overlooking the castle court yard.

What an amazing place...I would have been in awe at seeing such history and the architectural details of such a structure. A wonderful venue for a festival.
Yes- LOVE that window!! And all the rest of the details...
Love your pictures. I can't imagine seeing a real castle. Thanks for sharing!
I love visiting such old buildings, rich with the energy of past inhabitants. It's always nurturing to the imagination.
that pegasus is spectacular... do you get energized from being in a place where people have walked for more than a millenium? i could get lost in history - make it art/architectural history and i am a goner!
What a wonderful Sunday outing Hermanita!!
Do you suppose that Rupunzel shuttered the window so she could shampoo her hair in anticipation of a gentleman caller?? :) It's to bad the Garden Exhibit wasn't so great. With just a bit of imagination it could have been so cool!!Especially with the beautiful backdrop provided by the castle and grounds!!!

It just amazes me - all that history so many hundreds of years ago you get to enjoy...if it is 150 years old here it is really old!
Your pictures are wonderful

How amazing is this? To have wonders that date so far back. Stunning visuals. That window is quaint and gorgeous. Thanks for stopping by and leaving your comment Renate. The discs were kiln fired.
That is one beautiful castle. Sure wish I could hop on old Pegasus and fly over to see for myself.
Amazing! I am so envious that you are surrounded by such history and and beauty! Must be very inspiring!!
Your pics are always gorgeous!
What wonderful history. I loved the window also. And the Roman arch. The buildings are amazing and they are so old!!!
Amazing pics Renate. You give us a taste of history, love the photos you post. And I love the sewing you've been doing too! Thanks for looking at my little bag, they are so much fun to make. Hugs, Riki
Oooo, how fun! I love those kinds of old buildings in Europe! If the walls could talk...
Seems like we are both on a "cleaning things out" spree. Today, I attacked my studio and the mountain of papers on my desk that had to be filed. Feels good...
Here's to clear spaces and clear minds!! Love, Silke
Renate, I love it when you share pictures of the local attractions. I really miss those days, wandering around different villages with my family - and especially the old castles. These pictures really remind me of my teenage years in Germany. Looks like such a nice outing. :-)
Hi Renate! WOW! This place looks amazing to say the least! You got some great pictures too!
Beautiful day to you! Glad to be in relax mode a bit today! Thanks for the comments and I must say, always love your visits! Blessings.
Thank you for sharing this beautiful castle with us...we don't have anything like this here in the States so it's so fun to see.
The artwork for sale is beautiful...I can imagine them in my garden.
hugs.julie
