High Castle of Füssen
High Castle of Füssen, Gothic castle in Füssen, Germany
The High Castle stands on a hill above Füssen, featuring a late Gothic architectural design with painted decorations on the exterior walls.
The construction started in 1291 under Bavarian Duke Ludwig, and Bishop Friedrich II von Zollern completed the redesign between 1489 and 1504.
The castle museum displays Gothic panel paintings and sculptures from the 15th and 16th centuries, including a series depicting Saint Magnus's life.
