Schwangau is a municipality located in the Bavarian region of Ostallgäu, Germany, renowned for its historical significance and architectural heritage. The town is notably home to two of Bavaria's most famous castles: Neuschwanstein Castle and Hohenschwangau Castle. Situated at the foothills of the Alps, Schwangau is characterized by its picturesque landscape, combining mountainous terrain with the beautiful Alpsee and Schwansee lakes.
The area has a rich cultural history dating back to Roman times, but it gained particular prominence in the 19th century when King Ludwig II of Bavaria chose it as the location for his fairy-tale castle Neuschwanstein. The region's cultural landscape is deeply connected to the Wittelsbach dynasty, Bavaria's former ruling family, who used Hohenschwangau Castle as their summer residence. Today, Schwangau maintains its historical character while serving as an important center for cultural tourism, offering visitors insights into Bavarian royal history and architectural achievements.
