Once a summer residence of Ludwig I of Bavaria, this beautiful villa near Edenkoben is one of the not-to-miss sights along the route. As a fan of Italian architecture, Ludwig I specifically asked for his new country house to be built in an Italian style. Backed by the Palatinate forest and surrounded by vineyards, the four-wing mansion along with the twin-storey loggia does spread a hint of a Tuscan flair. Guided tours of the estate are available if you’re interested in learning more, otherwise, you can go off and explore the villa on your own. The castle is closed from March to December every year.
