Geschichte
Hohenzollern Castle is the ancestral seat of the imperial House of Hohenzollern. The third of three hilltop castles on the site, it is located atop Mount Hohenzollern, above and south of Hechingen, on the edge of the Swabian Jura of central Baden-Württemberg, Germany.The first fortress on the mountain was constructed in the early 11th century. Over the years the House of Hohenzollern split several times, but the castle remained in the Swabian branch, the dynastic seniors of the Franconian-Brandenburgian cadet branch that later acquired its own imperial throne. This castle was completely destroyed in 1423 after a ten-month siege by the free imperial cities of Swabia. A larger and sturdier structure was constructed from 1454 to 1461, which served as a refuge for the Catholic Swabian Hohenzollerns, including during the Thirty Years' War. By the end of the 18th century it was thought to have lost its strategic importance and gradually fell into disrepair, leading to the demolition of several dilapidated buildings.The final castle was built between 1846 and 1867 as a family memorial by Hohenzollern scion King Frederick William IV of Prussia. Architect Friedrich August Stüler based his design on English Gothic Revival architecture and the Châteaux of the Loire Valley. No member of the Hohenzollern family was in permanent or regular residence when it was completed, and none of the three German Emperors of the late 19th and early 20th century German Empire ever occupied the castle; in 1945 it briefly became the home of the former Crown Prince Wilhelm of Germany, son of the last Hohenzollern monarch, Kaiser Wilhelm II."Die Burg Hohenzollern liegt in Baden-Württemberg zwischen Stuttgart und dem Bodensee und zählt zu den bekanntesten deutschen Sehenswürdigkeiten. Die Festung thront auf 855 Metern Höhe auf dem kegelförmigen Zollerberg, bietet einen fantastischen Rundblick und gewährt Einblicke in ihre prachtvollen Säle und Gemächer. Seit rund 1.000 Jahren befindet sich die Burg im Privatbesitz der Familie Hohenzollern, aus der schwäbische Grafen, brandenburgische Kurfürsten, die preußischen Könige und auch die deutschen Kaiser hervorgingen. Dementsprechend gibt es auf dem Hohenzollern-Stammsitz auch allerlei Geschichte und Geschichten zu entdecken. Das burgeigene Restaurant bietet regionale Spezialitäten und bewirtschaftet im Sommer den Burg-Biergarten."
