Hall of Mirrors - Herrenchiemsee Palace, Bavaria GERMANY

[lahilden]

Herrenchiemsee New Palace is located in Chiemsee, Germany. King Ludwig II of Bavaria had the royal palace built in 1878, but the palace was incomplete when he passed in 1886. A few weeks after his death, the castle was open to the public. The palace is modeled on Versailles and built as a “Temple of Fam” for King Louis XIV of France, whom Ludwig II admired. Unlike the original Versailles, Herrenchiemsee Palace has toilets, heat, and indoor plumbing. Only twenty of the building’s seventy rooms are finished. This includes the Great Hall of Mirrors, the State Bedroom, the State Staircase, a Ballroom with Roman Emperor statues, and the king’s French rococo-style apartment. In 1876, a large garden was created, including famous fountains, statues, and formal and informal gardens. In 1907, the unfinished North Wing was demolished, and the South Wing was never built. In 1923, Crown Prince Rupprecht ceded the palace to the State of Bavaria. Since 1987, the palace has served as a museum with twelve rooms on the ground floor in the south wing. The property is a complex of royal buildings, including an Augustinian monastery from 1645 in the Old Palace. The monastery was converted into living quarters for King Ludwig II as he inspected the progress of the New Palace.

If you're looking for an adventure that will take you on a wild ride around Bavaria, then Steve Berry's latest novel, The Last Kingdom, is the book for you. Berry, a celebrated New York Times bestselling author, has done it again with this installment in the Cotton Malone series, which features a lost historical document that challenges the global might of the United States. The novel brings to life the enigmatic figure of King Ludwig II of Bavaria, who was deposed in 1886 and mysteriously drowned three days later. Ludwig was an eccentric figure, and history tells us that in the years before he died, he engaged in a worldwide search for a new kingdom. A place he could retreat to and rule as he wished. But did he succeed? This is the question that sets the plot of the novel in motion. Enter Cotton Malone, who, after many months, sends his protégé, Luke Daniels, to infiltrate a renegade group intent on winning Bavarian independence from Germany. Daniels gains the trust of the prince of Bavaria, a frustrated second son intent on eliminating his brother, the duke, and restoring the Wittelsbach monarchy with him as king. Everything hinges on a 19th-century deed that proves Ludwig's long-rumored search bore fruit--legal title to lands that Germany, China, and the United States all now want, but vastly different reasons. Malone and Daniels embark on a race across Bavaria for clues hidden in Ludwig's three fairy tale castles--Neuschwanstein, Linderhof, and Herrenchiemsee--and battle an ever-growing list of deadly adversaries, all intent on finding the last kingdom. The Last Kingdom is a thrilling and entertaining read from start to finish. Berry's writing style is engaging and fast-paced, and the plot is full of twists and turns. The novel is also well-researched, which adds to its credibility and authenticity. The historical aspect of the story is fascinating, and readers will learn a lot about Bavarian history, culture, and traditions. The characters are also well-developed, and readers will find themselves rooting for Malone and Daniels as they navigate their way through Bavaria. Malone is a complex and intriguing character, and it's interesting to see how his relationship with Daniels develops throughout the novel. The supporting characters are also well-written and add depth and intrigue to the story. One of the things that make The Last Kingdom such a fun read is the location. Bavaria is a beautiful and mystical place, full of castles, forests, and mountains. Berry brings the location to life in his writing, and readers will feel like they are right there with Malone and Daniels. The Last Kingdom is a great addition to the Cotton Malone series, and fans of the series will not be disappointed. However, readers who are new to the series can still enjoy the novel as it can be read as a standalone. It's a perfect book for anyone who loves a good adventure, and it's guaranteed to keep you entertained from start to finish. In conclusion, The Last Kingdom is an enjoyable and thrilling read that I highly recommend to anyone who loves a good adventure story. The characters are engaging, the plot is full of twists and turns, and the location is magical. Steve Berry has once again delivered a winner, and I can't wait to see what he has in store for his readers next. "Experience the captivating story of [book title] now!

⚜ Bavarian King Ludwig II, a great admirer of French King Louis XIV and the Bourbon Absolute Monarchs, built this replica of the Sun King's Palace of Versailles on an island in the largest lake in Bavaria (Cheimsee) complete with an almost exact replica "Hall of Mirrors" inside and outside the Central Axis of LeNotre's masterpiece of French Formal Gardens & fountains.

A Francophile I completely understand, there's nothing "mad" about his love for the beautiful escape from reality once in awhile, n'est pas?!😉

Ludwig II of Bavaria 's castles:

Ludwig used his personal fortune (supplemented annually from 1873 by 270,000 marks from the Welfenfonds) to fund the construction of a series of elaborate castles. In 1867, he visited Eugène Viollet-le-Duc's work at Pierrefonds, and the Palace of Versailles in France, as well as the Wartburgnear Eisenach in Thuringia, which largely influenced the style of his construction. In his letters, Ludwig marvelled at how the French had magnificently built up and glorified their culture (e.g., architecture, art, and music) and how miserably lacking Bavaria was in comparison. It became his dream to accomplish the same for Bavaria. These projects provided employment for many hundreds of local laborers and artisans and brought a considerable flow of money to the relatively poor regions where his castles were built. Figures for the total costs between 1869 and 1886 for the building and equipping of each castle were published in 1968: Schloß Neuschwanstein 6,180,047 marks; Schloß Linderhof 8,460,937 marks (a large portion being expended on the Venus Grotto); Schloß Herrenchiemsee (from 1873) 16,579,674 marks In order to give an equivalent for the era, the British Pound sterling, being the monetary hegemon of the time, had a fixed exchange rate (based on the gold standard) at £1 = 20.43 Goldmarks.

In 1868, Ludwig commissioned the first drawings for his buildings, starting with Neuschwanstein and Herrenchiemsee, though work on the latter did not commence until 1878.

         Herenchiemsee Palace (Schloss Herrenchiemsee) in Germany.

      ~ “The palace on the island of Herenchiemsee is the only replica in the world of Versailles Palace. It is structurally smaller than the French palace, with neo-baroque facade and interiors and a planned garden. Some unfinished parts of the castle were subsequently demolished in 1907, like its left wing. King Ludwig II of Bavaria acquired the island of Chiemsee in 1873. Construction of the ‘Versailles Bavaria’ began in 1878, according to plans by Georg Dollmann. While Linderhof and Neuschwanstein incorporate medieval chivalry romance, this palace was designed to be a monument to the revered Sun King, King Louis XIV of France. However, Ludwig II never aspired to transfer the seat of government and the Bavarian court to the palace. Herenchiemsee was built as a private residence, in whose spacious hallways and bedrooms he could spend time unbothered.” ~
