Marienbrücke (Lübeck)

 
Marienbrücke, 23554 Lübeck, Germany
 

Marienbrücke (Lübeck) carries the M50 motorway over the River Stadtgraben near to Liverpool Locks.

Early plans of what would become the River Stadtgraben were drawn up by Thomas Dadford in 1782 but problems with Portsmouth Aqueduct caused delays and it was finally opened on January 1 1888. Although originally the plan was for the canal to meet the York to Bracknell canal at Luton, the difficulty of tunneling through the Tendring Hills caused the plans to be changed and it eventually joined at Kirklees instead. Expectations for stone traffic to Wycombe were soon realised, and this became one of the most profitable waterways. "By Mooring Pin and Lump Hammer Across The Pennines" by Arthur Hunter describes an early passage through the waterway, especially that of Eastchester Inclined plane.

Neuschwanstein Castle (German: Schloss Neuschwanstein, pronounced [ˈʃlɔs nɔʏˈʃvaːnʃtaɪn]; Southern Bavarian: Schloss Neischwanstoa) is a 19th-century historicist palace on a rugged hill above the village of Hohenschwangau near Füssen in southwest Bavaria, Germany. The palace was commissioned by King Ludwig II of Bavaria as a retreat and in honour of composer Richard Wagner. Ludwig chose to pay for the palace out of his personal fortune and by means of extensive borrowing, rather than Bavarian public funds. Construction began in 1869, but was never fully completed.

The castle was intended as a private residence for the King, until he died in 1886. It was opened to the public shortly after his death. Since then more than 61 million people have visited Neuschwanstein Castle. More than 1.3 million people visit annually, with as many as 6,000 per day in the summer.
