What’s Inside
-
A line-drawing of Neuschwanstein Castle nestled among forest and mountains, with towers, spires and detailed windows.
-
Foreground trees and a scenic landscape to colour, giving depth and setting.
-
Clear outlines suitable for children to colour in their own way.
-
Lots of architectural detail: towers, rooftops, stairs, the castle’s silhouette.
-
Space for imagination: children decide colours for walls, roofs, sky, trees.
Why It’s Useful
-
For kids: Encourages fine motor skills, planning colour choices, and story-telling (“What kind of castle would you live in?”).
-
For classrooms/homeschool: Integrates art with a geography/history mini-lesson — Neuschwanstein Castle is a 19th-century palace in Bavaria built by King Ludwig II of Bavaria as a romantic “fairy-tale” castle. Helps children visualise historical architecture and landscapes—how a castle looks on a hill, towers, windows, forest.
-
A fun way to bring a bit of German culture and travel into the activity.
How To Use It
-
Print the worksheet on good quality paper (or cardstock for more durability).
-
Introduce a short background: “This castle is in Bavaria, Germany; it was built starting in 1869 as a romantic castle on a hillslope.”
-
Ask children: “What colour would the walls be? The roof? The forest around it? The sky?”
-
Provide colouring supplies: crayons, coloured pencils, markers. Encourage layering—for example darker shades for distant mountains, lighter for nearer trees.
-
After colouring, prompt discussion questions like: “If you lived in that castle, where would you look out from?”, “What time of day is it—sunset, day, night?”
-
Display their finished pages—maybe make a “European Castles” wall of artwork.
