I was traveling through Europe as a young man in the Summer of 1987 and the photo I took (posted on Google Nov 17 2020) of this magnificent castle from across the lake that captured its full reflection on the lake is a magnificent view solely worth the trip and it's just a few minutes outside Salzburg. Just because you can't go inside is absolutely no reason not to see this, don't let the ratings fool you! I noticed most of the lowest ratings were from professional guides only seeing the fact they can't monetize a half day tour out of it. This may be a great reason to put it on your "to see" list, you won't regret it.....there are plenty of castles in Europe you can spend your money on tours, personally after seeing 1 castle with a paid guide I would rather spend that 4 hours time seeing more castles and places than hearing a guide go on and on about the wallpaper of the era. BTW, If you are driving you can then head South to Berchtesgaden and then for the drive of your life (literally maybe:) through the mountains over the Grossglockner, really breathtaking scenery and it doesn't require a guide either..... From the Grossglockner you can keep going South to Verona--from there you take a right to Milan or a left to Venice. I went to Milan to see the Last Supper but it was closed for restoration however it was still worth the trip. I got to see Venice on my next trip, also worth the trip!

This is private property. Yes it's beautiful but it's still private. So why exactly are people leaving it 1 star reviews? Imagine it to be your own beautiful house and simulate thousands of tourists trampling through your garden and home.
