Yep, Cinderalla's castle (or is it sleeping beauty? I've heard different
versions) was greatly influenced by Neuschwanstein. Walt Disney apparently
spent some time there and was inspired. Many parts of the interior were
never furnished, because King Ludwig II died before it was completed. I was
there on tour in 1997, and it is beautiful indeed.
