12 Beautiful Fairytale Castles in Europe - Travel Video

Built by kings and queens to protect and rule their realms, castles had not only to be able to withstand attack but to project their power and wealth. As such, sturdy keeps and imposing walls were erected alongside marvelous palaces, full of ornate and elaborate chambers and throne rooms.

These castles were often built at strategic and spectacular settings at the mouths of valleys, at the entrance to mountain passes, or on glittering lakeshores. Add in the weight of history, and these amazing structures set amongst breathtaking scenery make for some of the most beautiful castles in Europe.

I was last summer to Corvin Castle. Very nice. And the Transylvania/Romania in general is very nice. A lot of castles and fortified churches. If you are a fan of medieval era, Transylvania is a place to visit.

What a thoroughly eye-opening presentation! I know this is just a fraction of the castles throughout Europe but this was informative and intriguing for the given information. I was not aware of half of these. Good job!

I've been to the Pena castle it's amazing, also cintra is also so cool. It has its own microclimate and plants native to just that region

I think Bojnice or Orava Castle in Slovakia should have made the list, both very beautiful with unique, amazing features.
Especially Bojnice, being surrounded by a lake and with a very unique design!

Nice but very American selection, mostly Romanticist castles for the Disney factor

[ivogianfranco]

Nice video :) Only pity that Czech Republic and Austria were not included, both countries have some beautiful castles!

You could easily make 10 more videos like this with other castles. There is plenty of history in Europe for Americans to admire!

Wawel Castle in Krakow, Poland is very beautiful.

When I was looking at the Awesome Castle’s built before 1000 years ago wondered about the Architecture and Quality of the Castles

[jackvylares]

Wow Pena Castle seems really interesting! Never been to Portugal, want to go there one day

[MostlyCastles]

Went to Hohenzollern Castle a few years ago, beautiful place and amazing views of the surrounding area. But made the mistake of walking up to the castle via the stairs in about 35 degrees Celsius heat and back down again as I couldn't be bothered waiting on the bus, I suffered for days with the aches of my leg muscles.
