You can add new historic sites to the SpottingHistory.com. It doesn't matter how small or large the site is or how much it has cultural heritage value - please feel free to add all kind of sites you would like to introduce, for example from your own neighborhoods!
The only requirement is that the site must have some historical value: an old artefact, historic building, place for historical event, museum, recommended place to visit etc.
Linderhof is the smallest of the three palaces built by King Ludwig II of Bavaria and the only one which he lived to see completed.
Ludwig II, who was crowned king in 1864, began his building activities in 1867-1868 by redesigning his rooms in the Munich Residenz and laying the foundation stone of Neuschwanstein Castle. In 1868 he was already making his first plans for Linderhof. However, neither the palace modelled on Versailles that was to be sited on the floor of the valley nor the large Byzantine palace envisaged by Ludwig II were ever built.
Instead, the new building developed around the forester's house belonging to his father Maximilian II, which was located in the open space in front of the present palace and was used by the king when crown prince on hunting expeditions with his father.
