Current information / Coronavirus

Neuschwanstein Castle is open to the public. A visit is only possible as part of a guided tour (German or English). Please note that the group sizes had to be significantly reduced due to hygiene regulations. This means that per day only about 10% of the previously allowed visitors can visit the castle!

Please take into account considerable waiting times and restrictions such as altered routes or room closures.

How do I get my ticket?

To avoid congestion at the windows of the ticket centre, entrance tickets in price category 1 (regular price) can at the moment only be bought online (booking fee 2.50 euros).

Note for families to book online: Children need their own ticket (free ticket, booking fee 2.50 euros) to enter the castle. Please take this into account when booking online.

Visitors who are entitled to buy reduced tickets or have free admission (annual ticket etc.) are kindly requested to buy their tickets at the ticket centre. Please expect considerable waiting times; it is also possible that a visit on the desired day is not possible at all.

The multivision room and the lift are currently not available.

The inner courtyard of the castle can currently only be visited as part of the castle tour.

The Marienbrücke is accessible (limited number of visitors; please follow the instructions on site)
