There are over 24,000 castles in Germany today; some are only ruins, but many of them are well-preserved and home to families, museums, restaurants and even hotels.
So why are there so many castles in Germany today?
During the Middle Ages, the land area that was to become Germany today, was a land that was divided into many small, competitive feudal states and principalities. This period of time was wrought with wars and conflict and these unstable times encouraged the construction of secure and fortified castles throught Germany.
