Equipment and modern technology
King Ludwig II demanded that there be a central heating system, telephone lines, and other modern equipment installed in his castle. The royal residence had central heating that heated the rooms with hot air. There was running water, including hot and cold water in the kitchen. The toilets flushed on their own.
The king used an electric call system to summon servants. There was an elevator provided so that the food was easily received without carrying it up the steps.
Hall of the Singers
The Throne Hall was one of the most significant rooms in the castle, but one of the king's favorite constructions was the Singers' Hall. It combines the Festival Hall and the Singers' Hall, two historically significant Wartburg chambers, and takes up the entire fourth level in the eastern part of the Palas.
Ballroom
The Hall of the Singers is the palace's largest room in terms of square footage, followed by the Throne Hall. The Ballroom and the Hall of the Singers, two Wartburg halls, were combined in their design. One of the king's favorite palace renovation projects featured motifs from Lohengrin and Parsifal.
Throne Hall
The throne hall, which is marvelously furnished in the neo-Byzantine style with a 4-meter-high brass chandelier, is without a doubt the most magnificent space. The throne although decorated with paintings and gold, is not present in the throne hall. This may be a sign of the absence of the visionary king who died before he could take control.
Royal Lodging
When the king was building the castle, there were to be elaborate apartments stocked with the finest furnishings, a music hall, and a sizable courtyard where people could take in the fresh mountain air. The royal residence has been a key draw for travelers from other regions.
