4 day Germany tour - Berlin

Travel without leaving your sofa

As the world moves into virtual space, there are more and more places to visit. Not only do you no longer have to stand in long queues and push in crowds of people to visit the most spectacular places, now you don’t even have to get up from your couch! Virtual tours have become popular in a flash, and their "attendance" is growing! Today we present 3 virtual tours that will take you to Germany.

Museum island in Berlin, Germany

Museum Island (Museumsinsel)

The Museum Island, which was built in Berlin between 1823 and 1930, has accumulated over 6,000 years of human history. All the buildings in the complex were designed by renowned architects of their time, such as Karl Friedrich Schinkel and Friedrich August Stühler. So even the buildings and structures of the museum themselves are considered artifacts.

This architectural ensemble was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site back in 1999. It is an amazing site that is worth visiting for all who come to Berlin. While it is timid to embark on real travel, you can visit Museum Island virtually! You can do this here .

Berlin TV tower

368m. height TV tower

The tallest building accessible to tourists in Europe is the Berlin TV Tower. This is a place with an incredible panorama of the city. A huge city at your feet and impressive architectural objects as far as the eye can see. It is one of the city's most popular attractions.

The plans to draw the tower date back to 1950, and construction began in the next decade. Not only did the tower perform its original function, this building became a symbol of a united Germany. Visitors to the tower can enjoy coffee, desserts or even lunch at an incredible height at the top. You can visit the tower without leaving your home - just join the virtual tour, which you will find here.

Orchestra

Listen to Philharmonic Orchestra

Germany is full of diversity. Cities mix different cultures, different types of art thrive, and music lovers can find a full range of different concerts. However it is true that one type of music has been around for several centuries - it is classical music.

The Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra invites you to listen to more than 600 orchestral concerts held over the past 10 years. You can hear the legendary 7th Symphony of Ludwig van Bethchoven or the 6th Symphony of Peter Tchaikovsky. Well, if you are not interested in music, you can virtually walk around the concert hall and see where the most amazing concerts are born. See the Philharmonic here and the concerts here.

Virtual Explorer: 5 classic destinations in Germany

Germany can be an incredible place to live. Trains run on time. The autobahn is a phenomenal experience. In any given village, you can find bakeries, butcher shops, florists, ice cream shops and at least one good Gasthaus that serves phenomenal schnitzel.

For those who live here, Germany is also an amazing place to be a tourist. It’s packed with history, culture and wonderful day trip opportunities. Even more, it possesses a number of world-class forests, mountains, museums, castles, vineyards and monuments that attract visitors from all over the world.

But if you can’t travel, you can try the next best thing: virtual tours! Here are five classic German destinations that offer top-notch virtual experiences. And once you’re able to get out there, put these places at the top of your In-Real-Life list.

Brandenburg Gate

germany virtual tour

Brandenburg GateThe Brandenburg Gate is an enduring symbol of Germany’s struggle for unity, which stretches back from the 19th century to modern times. But it is also a testament to the peace that can be achieved through unity. Located in the heart of Berlin, near the German parliament building, the Brandenburg Gate is an elegant, classic and beautiful monument. The virtual tour does it justice.

Take the virtual tour: https://cyark.org/projects/brandenburg-gate/virtual-tour

Rothenburg ob der Tauber

Located near the border between the German states of Bavaria and Baden-Württemburg, Rothenburg is a postcard dream. Famous the world over for cute streets, adorable buildings, outstand- ing Christmas market and medieval city walls, this village is often at the top of tourist lists. Get a great taste of what it’s like to be there by using the 360-degree controls in the virtual tour video.

Take the virtual tour: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eDACgH19z6Y

Deutsches Museum, Munich

germany virtual tour

Deutsches MuseumIn all honesty, it’s probably best to take the vir- tual tour first. Because the Deutsches Museum is so massive that it can get overwhelming quickly. But as one of the best science and technology museums in the world, it also offers a testament to the power of innovation, engineering and invention. Discover all sorts of awesome stuff that ranges from old school (transportation) to cutting edge (nanotechnology) to downright cool (cryptography).

Take the virtual tour: https://virtualtour.deutsches-museum.de/ (change to EN in the left menu)

Neuschwanstein Castle

Neuschwanstein CastleKing Ludwig’s very expensive castle on the hill is one of the most famous monuments in the world. When you visit Neuschwanstein in person, one of the highlights is walking upward toward the massive place. Virtual tourists get a wonderfully different perspective, however: a bird’s eye view of the castle and the surrounding area.

Take the virtual tour: https://www.airpano.com/360photo/Neuschwanstein-Germany-Virtual-Tour/

Berchtesgaden

Berchtesgaden Bavaria

BerchtesgadenIn person, Berchtesgaden is fantastic. Located in the German Alps near the Austrian border, it is home to a national park, thick forests, towering granite peaks and tons of natural playgrounds for visitors of all ages. Incredibly, however, the virtual tour offers something that you won’t find by visiting in real life. You’ll feel like you’re standing on the tallest peak there, and have the power to fly like an eagle to see something at close range. You definitely have to try it.

Take the virtual tour: https://pano.berchtesgaden360.de/

Bonus: Black Forest Motorcycle Tour

Even if you’re not a motorcyclist, it’s a pretty excellent experience to feel like you’re cruising narrow Black Forest roads. Watch at least the first two minutes of this strangely calming video. You’ll get a great taste for what it’s like to drive through Germany’s most famous forest. And it may just bring inspire dreams of open roads.

Fussen Town, Neuschwanstein and Hohenschwangau Castles, Germany

This virtual tour concludes our series of panoramas about the most beautiful castle in Bavaria   — Neuschwanstein (click to open our first virtual tour above the castle) . Around the famous castle located many other attractions. We were able to capture the castle Hohenschwangau . We have done even a night panorama. We also flew over the town of Fussen, so you can look at this town in our tour.

Germany is the land of fairy tales that gave the world Wilhelm Hauff and The Brothers Grimm, for example. Germany is also home to the most magical castle on the planet, Neuschwanstein Castle, the name of which translates as «The New Swan Cliff». It was built in the second half of the nineteenth century by Ludwig II of Bavaria, or as they called him, «The Fairy-Tale King».

Ludwig II holds a special place amongst other German rulers. What set him apart from his stringent and warrior-like predecessors was his romanticism and dreamy character, so much so that he channelled all of his statesman's passion (alongside with state funds) towards making his dreams come true, dreams of magical countries populated by fairy-tale creatures.

Disillusioned by the daily routines of Munich, Ludwig II was not interested in its problems. Instead, day by day he became more and more submerged in his own dream world. This gave the world several castles — Herrenchiemsee, Linderhof and Neuschwanstein, each one is a masterpiece of world architecture, enchanting us with its weightlessness and fairy-tale silhouettes with magnificent mountains as a backdrop.

Wartburg Castle was chosen as the model for Neuschwanstein as it is the only remaining castle from the feudal period in Bavaria. Ludwig the II's creation surpassed the original. At the time the King was very deeply moved by Richard Wagner's opera «Lohengrin», he saw himself in the opera's main character, the noble white swan-knight, a fairy-tale hero of the ancient legends. And with the help of architects he created his own «Swan Castle».

Town Fussen

The walls of the castle depict the magical world of «The Song of The Nibelungs» («Nibelungenlied»), medieval legends of Przival, Lohengrin and Tannhäuser, The Holy Grail, Tristan and Isolde... The masters spent a long time working very carefully on every hall and every panel painting, with every detail a true masterpiece. This is also the reason why the building work took so long and failed to reach completion even in Ludwig's lifetime. As an example, the wood carving in one bedroom took 14 carpenters 4 and a half years.

Yet the King had the incredible ability to combine fantasies with reality, and despite the castle's heavenly appearance, it was equipped with all the modern technology of its time. The rooms in the royal residence were fitted with hot air central heating, toilets were equipped with an automatic flushing system, electric bells were in place to summon servants and some floors even had telephones!

Neuschwanstein is first and foremost a true fairy tale made of stone. It became the prototype for the Sleeping Beauty castle in Disneyland Paris and a source of inspiration for Tchaikovsky's ballet «The Swan Lake». But in the end it drove the King insane, and instead of attending to the urgent duties of his country as a ruler, he went on expeditions, following the footsteps of Wilhelm Tell or had dinner with the spirit of Louis XIV. Night became day and day became night for Ludwig II and for that he was nicknamed The Moon King.

According to Bavarian law a king can be removed from power if found unfit to govern. It is not surprising then that eventually (in 1886) he was deposed. He was transported to the Berg Castle and died the next day in a lake under mysterious circumstances together, with the psychiatrist who diagnosed him as insane. These mysterious events have contributed to the intriguing image of the castle. Just two months after the King's death, the unfinished Neuschwanstein was open to visitors!

And it was the right thing to do. No stories or photos of Neuschwanstein can possibly depict its beauty. Once you have admired our aerial panoramas, we strongly recommend you see the fairy tale for yourself. Getting to Neuschwanstein Castle: there are trains and taxis available from nearby towns.

Hohenschwangau Castle at night

There are several other famous castles in the area surrounding Neuschwanstein, namely Hohenschwangau, Füssen and Schwangau. For the convenience of tourists, a special "romantic road" was created (Romantikstrasse), a special tour popular with visitors to Bavaria. The surrounding area also boasts ski slopes and special lifts to take skiers and tourists to the top of the Tegelberg Mountain. In general, even a whole day is not enough to fully enjoy the beauty and diversity of this place.

And now Sergey Semenov and Stas Sedov speak. They will tell us abour their trip to Neuschwanstein Castle.

This four-day trip had only one purpose — to shoot the famous Bavarian castle surrounded by colorful autumn trees. We waited for the precise moment, when leaves turn red, green and orange for the short period of time. 

Hohenschwangau Castle and Alpsee

Technically the photo shoot of this type shouldn't take more than two days. However, we decided to give it some extra time... As it turned out, it was a wise decision. Mountains stay mountains (even if it's just low foothills of Alps in Southern Bavaria), so the weather is rather unpredictable there. It is also worth mentioning, that the only time when the castle is perfectly lit for the photo is that short 30-minutes window in the morning. Afterwards the sun travels leaving only the sidewall of the castle in light.

We arrived. But apparently the weather didn't want to cooperate. Day one —  it was raining all day; photo shoot was canceled. Day two — the same thing.

On the third day the weather tricked us again. The thick fog covered everything from the very morning. Regardless, we were full of optimism, so we climbed the mountain above the castle, and then descended into the valley, hoping to find a clearing. No luck. Finally after three hours of waiting we decided to shoot the castle at any cost.

However, there are no good shooting spots when the visibility is 30-40 meters. Except for one — right from the center of the castle! Although it's rather risky to fly and shoot in the castle...

Anyhow, we took our chance. Thank God that all the tourists were asleep at such an early hour. The take-off was very difficult due to heavy fog, which was in reality 100% humidity. It condensed large drops of water on the equipment, so we had to be quick. There was no time to go back and correct mistakes.

Our RC helicopter took off and quickly disappeared into the fog. All we had was the screen of our laptop with blinking control lights and short beeps of the height sensor in Stas's headphones. The time passed very slowly.

In a few minutes, here it was — our helicopter returned from the white foam of the fog, all wet, as if it was in a shower. Everything was covered with large drops of water: the helicopter, the camera, and the lens. Nevertheless, the equipment did its job just fine, and we immediately returned to our hotel room to dry it.

So this is the story of shooting this spherical panorama.

We spent the following day waiting, and only on the forth day did nature smile at us. The weather was wonderful and we shot, and shot, and shot...

My Path in the World

30 Wonderful Virtual Tours of Castles in Europe

When we can’t travel, we need to be creative. As a Europe and castle lover, I figured I should make a list of the best virtual tours of castles in Europe.

I must have researched hundreds of castles, and I think my eyes popped out of my head just like in a cartoon because I was blown away by the number of dreamy places in Europe I still need to visit.

I did want to include at least one castle from each country, but like the song says – you can’t always get what you want. So here they are – thirty virtual castle tours for times when you’re stuck at home.

Tip:  Try these tours on your personal computer and not on your mobile.

Table of Contents

Virtual Castle Tours of Central Europe

Wartburg castle, germany.

Overlooking the town of Eisenach, the 11th-century Wartburg Castle is the first German castle to be declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

This castle was also the setting of many important events in Germany ‘s history (like the translation of the New Testament to German).

Don’t miss the opportunity to visit this piece of history and  take this virtual tour.

Drachenburg Castle, Germany

Sitting on a hill overlooking the Rhine Valley, this 19th-century castle-like villa is a place I wouldn’t mind living in for a little while.

If you’re familiar with the German legend of Siegfried the dragon slayer, know that said slaying supposedly happened just a little farther up the mountain.

Wander around Drachenburg with this virtual tour.

Drachenburg castle

Neuschwanstein Castle, Germany

Perhaps the most famous real-life fairytale place in the world (thanks to Walt Disney that was inspired by it), the 19th-century Neuschwanstein Castle is also one of the most stunning castles in Germany .

Every time I see its photo on Instagram, all I can think of is, ‘why am I not there right now?’. So in the meantime, I’m trying to cheer myself up with  this tour of the castle from above.

Neuschwanstein castle

Sneznik Castle, Slovenia

Though it’s not as fairytale-like or as famous as other castles in Europe, I think the 13th-century Snežnik Castle is a nice addition to this list.

I love putting a spotlight on hidden gems, so I’m glad I found  a virtual tour of this overlooked place in Slovenia.

Prague Castle, Czechia

Like I just said, I’m a hidden gem kind of girl, but that doesn’t mean I don’t like to visit and admire the major landmarks of a country.

Prague Castle is one of those landmarks you must visit, even if you only have one day in Prague , so I’m glad to have this virtual access to it , where I can explore it without the crowds.

I obviously prefer seeing it in real life, but I wouldn’t say no to a glance at a 9th-century UNESCO site and the world’s largest ancient castle complex (according to the Guinness Book of Records).

Prague Castle

Malbork Castle, Poland

Built in the 13th century by the Order of the Teutonic Knights, the Malbork Castle is the largest in the world!

This UNESCO World Heritage Site is still on my Poland bucket list , but at least I can admire some parts of it with  this virtual tour . It doesn’t have an English version, but that doesn’t take away from the experience.

Malbork Castle

Kornik Castle, Poland

Small yet charming, the Kornik Castle was built in the 14th century by the noble Gorka family and remodeled later on by the noble Dzialynski family.

Today, it houses a museum and a library, and you can easily visit it on a day trip from the beautiful city of Poznan . But if you’re not visiting Poznan any time soon, you might want to  check out this virtual castle tour .

Wawel Castle, Poland

Can you believe that this castle was one of the first UNESCO sites in the world?

I was very surprised by this fact, even though I know Poland has a lot to offer and deserves more recognition as a visit-worthy destination.

The Wawel Castle dates back to the 14th century, and after hundreds of years of being the residence of the kings of Poland, today it houses an important art museum.

To explore this impressive Polish landmark of the city of Krakow,  take this virtual tour  (choose ‘panoramas’ to start the 360-degrees tour).

Wawel castle

Virtual Tours of Castles in Western Europe

Gravensteen castle, belgium.

Looking at this gorgeous medieval castle, you wouldn’t think that besides serving as a royal residence, it was also used as a court, a prison, and even as a cotton factory.

Today it’s one of Ghent’s top points of interest (which can also be visited on a day trip from Brussels ), and you can explore it from the comfort of your home with this online tour.

CH Â TEAUX OF THE LOIRE VALLEY, FRANCE

I’ve yet to visit the iconic Loire Valley (which stretches across two of the most beautiful regions in France ), but I know I’m not going to miss its dreamy chateaux, all built between the 10th and 18th centuries.

There are actually more than 300 of them (challenge accepted), so in the meantime, I’ll have to satisfy my wanderlust with  these virtual tours on Google Arts & Culture  and these 360-degree views of the chateaux from above (check out  part 1 ,  part 2 , and  part 3 ).

Chateau de Chambord

Castello Sforzesco, Italy

Dating back to the 15th century, the Castello Sforzesco is a must-see landmark in Milan, Lombardy ( northern Italy ). The castle’s huge complex houses several museums and art collections, including pieces by Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci.

Luckily, you can explore some of them and a few parts of the castle with these virtual tours on Google Arts & Culture.

Château de Pierrefonds, France

Originally built in the late 14th century and demolished in the 17th century, this beautiful castle near Paris was rebuilt 200 years later, taking inspiration from Middle Ages military architecture.

To explore this remarkable chateau, which is one of the most beautiful castles in France , take this virtual tour.

Fun fact: Another gorgeous castle you can visit near Paris is the Chateau de Vaux Le Vicomte !

Pierrefonds Castle

Miramare Castle, Italy

Living in a castle sounds awesome, but living in a castle overlooking the sea and surrounded by a huge park sounds even better.

I really don’t get why the owners of the Miramare Castle, the Austrian Emperor Ferdinand Maximilian and his wife Charlotte of Belgium, wanted to leave this place.

They became the Emperors of Mexico (say what?), and the castle has become a popular place to visit in Italy.

See what the Miramare Castle looks like on the inside with  this tour.

Alcazar of Segovia, Spain

Dating back to the 12th century, the Alcazar of Segovia is one of the most famous UNESCO sites in Spain . Throughout the years, it served as a fortress, a royal palace, a state prison, and a military academy, and it is now a museum.

I’m grateful that I was lucky enough to visit this fairytale castle in real life (on a day trip from Madrid ), but I’m also happy to have found this great virtual tour of the Alcazar, so you can enjoy it as well.

The Alcazar palace and fortress in Segovia Spain

Belvis de Monroy Castle, Spain

Located in the undiscovered region of Extremadura, this 13th-century castle is  not  on the list of the most visited places in Spain (which is exactly what I love about it).

It was damaged and abandoned years ago (and is now being restored), and this  virtual tour does a great job of allowing you to soak in the history of this unique place.

Want to see more of Spain? Here are 21 virtual tours of my favorite country!

Pena Palace, Portugal

An insta-famous landmark in Portugal and one of my top favorite stops on my road trip from Lisbon to Porto (a classic driving route in Portugal ), this 19th-century castle-like palace had to be on this list.

Its mix of architectural styles and vibrant colors is a feast for the eyes, especially when it’s popping out of the green scenery surrounding it.

It’s no wonder why it’s one of Europe’s most visited attractions, so if you still haven’t seen this stunning palace in real life, take advantage of this short virtual tour  and discover its beauty.

Pena Palace in Sintra

Castle of Guimarães, Portugal

Located in northern Portugal and originally built in the late 10th century as a refuge for the citizens of Guimarães (who had suffered attacks by Vikings and Moors), this castle is associated with the birth of the Portuguese nation.

It was here where the first king of Portugal (Alfonso) was born and where he fought for Portugal’s independence. You can (and should)  explore this amazing piece of history on Google Arts and Culture.

Virtual Tours of Castles in Northern Europe

Windsor castle, england.

This tour will only give a sneak peek of Windsor Castle, but who can say no to a glance at one of Queen Elizabeth’s royal residences (and the largest inhabited castle in the world)?

Edinburgh Castle, Scotland

A virtual visit to Edinburgh would not be complete without Edinburgh Castle.

Sitting on a volcanic rock above the city, this fortress & former Scottish royal residence is one of the top landmarks to consider when planning a trip to Scotland .

This tour on Google Arts & Culture  only lets you explore the complex on the outside, but when we can’t travel, we should take what we can get.

Edinburgh Castle

Raby Castle, England

Raby Castle is definitely one of the best places to visit in the north of England .

It’s not every day that you get to see an intact 14th-century castle (that was also the birthplace of the mother of two kings of England), so while you can’t travel, why not see it in a 360-degree view via an online tour?

Check it out here and use the ‘explore’ menu to move between the different parts of the castle.

Warwick Castle, England

Not too far from the Cotswolds, you’ll find Warwick Castle, a medieval fortress turned into a country house.

On an actual visit, it offers plenty of themed attractions and shows, but in the meantime, you can  enjoy this lovely virtual tour.

Warwick castle

Caerlaverock Castle, Scotland

There’s something sad yet fascinating about castles that were severely damaged and remained in ruins, and the 13th-century Caerlaverock Castle, one of Scotland’s great medieval fortresses, is one of them.

Take a tour around its remains with Google Street View.

Hever Castle, England

Dating back to the 13th century, Hever Castle was the childhood home of Anne Boleyn, the second wife of King Henry VIII.

It’s one of the best castles near London (a list that also includes Downtown Abbey’s Highclere Castle ) , and what attracts travelers to this place is not only the castle itself but also the lake and gardens surrounding it. You can see it all on  this virtual castle tour.

Blair Castle, Scotland

Nestled in the Scottish Highlands, the beautiful Blair Castle is the historical seat of the Duke of Atholl (a title granted to the chief of the Scottish Murray clan) and home to the Atholl Highlanders, Europe’s only remaining private army.

It’s a total privilege to be able to wander around this place without actually traveling, so you have to check out  this online castle tour.

Blair castle

Dunluce Castle, Northern Ireland

Perched on the cliffs of the Antrim coast, not much has remained of the medieval Dunluce Castle, the historical seat of the McDonnell clan and one of the top places to see on the Causeway Coastal Route .

Yet, it is still one of the most iconic castles in Northern Ireland, so you can’t miss the opportunity to see it, even if it’s just on a virtual tour.

Kalmar Castle, Sweden

Built as a fortress in the 12th century and turned into a royal residence in the 16th century, the Kalmar Castle is one of the best-preserved Nordic Renaissance castles. Explore it with this virtual tour.

Online Castle Tours of Eastern Europe

Rakvere castle, estonia.

Once a Danish stronghold, the Rakvere Castle is now a themed museum aiming to transport you back to medieval times.

To get a better understanding of what you can expect from this place or just tour around the castle ruins,  take this online tour.

Bran Castle, Romania

Often known as ‘Dracula’s Castle,’ the infamous Bran Castle is a must-see site in Romania . I got to visit it a few years ago, and it was fascinating and a bit creepy both at the same time.

The actual connection between Dracula’s author — Bram Stoker, his alleged inspiration — Vlad the Impaler, and the castle remains unclear, but the myths about them are what attract so many visitors to this intriguing place.

Visit the Bran Castle at home with Google Maps.

Trakoscan Castle, Croatia

Now a museum, the Trakoscan Castle was once a fortress and the home of a Croatian aristocratic family.

To make it extra scenic, it’s surrounded by big romantic gardens and an artificial lake, which are also included on  the castle’s virtual tour.

Mir Castle, Belarus

Dating back to the 16th century, the Mir Castle is one of the few UNESCO World Heritage Sites in Belarus.

I admit that this country was not on my bucket list (at least not in the top twenty), but  this virtual tour  has made me realize that I need to give it more credit.
