Germany has more castles than the United States has McDonald’s. This is the Eltz castle, located in Wiershem. It has been owned and occupied by the same family for 33 generations over 800 years

Because castles are awesome. You can buy one for under 1 million pounds/dollars/euros. But jokes on your bank account if you want to live in it

If you want to go window shopping, here you go.

None of the ones in England are castles. It's a bunch of big houses and country manors.
