今日のお城😍一日一城 ラウエンシュタイン(Lauenstein)要塞。ドイツ・バイエルン州の北の端っこにあります。 東西ドイツ分断の際、西側に入ったこちらのお城ですが、わずか20キロしか離れていない場所に、兄弟城があるんです。そちらは東ドイツで・・・この兄弟城が東西分断後に辿った運命が・・・興味深い！ 同じオルラミュンデ公爵家によって建てられた二つのお城。こちらのラウエンシュタイン要塞は、バイエルン州の管理のもと、きっちり修復され、12世紀まできちんと歴史を遡った展示も素晴らしいものになっています。 以前はお城の一部が古城ホテルとして利用されていたとの事。随分前に営業を取りやめてしまったようですが・・・泊まりたかった〜 兄弟城の方は、東ドイツ時代に少々ほったらかしにされまして・・・でも今は、と〜っても素晴らしい城主の方がいらっしゃるんです。そのお話は、長くなるのでまた今度かな。 そして、こちらのお城に行ったら、必ずチョコレート屋さんに行きます。お城と同じ名前の、Lauenstein というと〜っても可愛くて美味しいチョコレート屋さんの、何と、本店とアウトレットがあるんです！ 本店は小
