After a long and exhausting walk to the top of the alp Zoller we've finally reached it
There are several windings and gates to walk trough before we get to the level of the bastions
The view from one of the bastions
There are some big bronze-guys to look at here, I've confused the order
The Margrafe Tower
Next two pics show Hechingen
The inner ward
The catholic St.Michaels Chapel, the only remaining building from the second castle
From left to right:
Friedrich Wilhelm Constantin von Hohenzollern-Hechingen
Wilhelm II. von Preussen
Carl Anton von Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen
That's Jos Niklas, he build the second castle after the first one was destroyed in 1423
It wasn't allowed to take pics from the inner rooms, I took the following pics underhand in the treasure room:
The beautiful Queen Luise wore this when she met Napoleon, she was very petite
Friedrich III. in front of a dead French General in the Franco-Prussian war
The chain of the Black-Eagle-Order
A Prussian Eagle
A room in the cellar where they stored some busts, dang I could swear I've seen one of these guys on coins before
A secret passage, part of the second castle
A casemate, part of the second castle as well, it was filled up with rubbish for hundreds of years, before they rediscovered it a few years ago
Where did I see this scene before ?
A stone plate in St.Michaels chapel with the engraved names of the of the survivors of the over one year lasting liege in 1423
THe inner of the chapel
They finally found a place for one bust at least
Then the accu was dead
