Neuschwanstein Castle in February

Not the best time

February remains tough for castle visiting with harsh weather and limited daylight. But if you can handle the cold, you'll have the place nearly to yourself and save serious money.

Weather

February continues the bitter cold with slightly more sunshine breaking through. Snow remains on the ground most of the month, and winds from the Alps can make it feel even colder. The days are still short, with darkness falling by 5 PM.
