Germany's Disney Castle WITHOUT the Tourists | Schloss Wernigrode - Harz Mountains Trip

Wernigerode is a town in the Harz district of central Germany. Its old town is characterized by its half-timbered houses, including the medieval Town Hall and the leaning Crooked House. On the outskirts, Wernigerode Castle houses a museum and has views of the town.
Originally built in the 12th century to protect German Kaisers on hunting expeditions, Schloss Wernigerode was enlarged over the years to reflect late-Gothic and Renaissance tastes. The castle's fairy-tale facade came courtesy of Count Otto of Stolberg-Wernigerode in the 19th century. The museum inside includes portraits of Kaisers, beautiful panelled rooms with original furnishings, the opulent Festsaal (banquet hall) and stunning Schlosskirche (1880), with its altar and pulpit made of French marble.
