King Ludwig Neuschwanstein s castle was not fully finished at the time of the king s death in 1886. It is 426.5 feet (130 m) long and sits atop a steep 656 feet (200 m) hill! Its main tower is 213 feet (65 m) high. Two hundred workers used 465 tons of Salzburg marble, 4550 tons of sandstone, 400,000 bricks, 600 tons of cement, 50 tons of coal, and 3600 cubic meters of sand!

Sigurd corresponds to the Siegfried of the mid-high Germanic Nibelungen. Marble portals lead to the Throne Room on the west side and to the royal chambers on the opposite.
