Kind of cool. I hadn't seen these photos before.http://www.retronaut.com/2013/03/construction-of-neuschwanstein-castle/
Only the ground floor was ever finished. When I first visited the castle in 1995 that was all you could see. I went back in 2009 and now they have built out a portion of the second floor into a gift shop and cafe. It is worth seeing if you ever come to Germany but don;t expect anything but a superficial resemblance to a real castle. One of the most impressive things in the castle is the King's bed, it supposedly took something like 20,000 man hours to carve and I can believe it.
