Description
“In addition to Schwangau, familiar to him from childhood experience, Ludwig II had become acquainted as crown prince with the Graswang Valley on repeated excursions from Hohenschwangau. His father, King Max II., owned a hunting lodge in ‘Linderhoff’. This ‘Linderhof’ was in the 15th century a title property of the Ettal Monastery, named after the Linder family which managed it. The name is derived from an ancient linden tree, which – even today – still stands remarkably unsymmetric in the otherwise strictly axially laid out garden, carefully tended and provided with a hunter’s seat at the king’s request.”
