Neuschwanstein Castle

King Ludwig II's fairytale castle in the Bavarian Alps gets the full LEGO Architecture treatment across 3,455 pieces, from its cluster of white towers to the rocky crag it perches on. Building it is a slow, satisfying climb, layering up the turrets and rooflines until the whole silhouette clicks into place. It is the real castle that inspired the one at the center of so many theme parks, and up close you can see why.
