Beautiful collection of castles!
Makes you think of who lived there..

But I am a little disappointed that there is no mention of one of the greatest and one of the oldest castles in Europe – WAWEL CASTLE. Just a little quote from the actual website of http://www.wawel.krakow.pl

“Wawel Hill – a Jurassic limestone rock, a dominant feature in the landscape of Cracow (about 228 m above see level) was formed about 150 million years ago. Situated on the bank of the Vistula river, surrounded by waters and marshes, the hill provided a safe haven for people who have settled here since the Paleolithic Age. It is supposed that the Slav people started living on Wawel hill as early as the 7th century.
Early medieval legends tell stories about a dreadful dragon that lived in a cave on Wawel Hill, about his slayer Krakus, and about the latter’s daughter Wanda, who drowned herself in the Vistula rather than marry a German knight….”

i’ve been to 28, and yeh it looks nice, but there’s not much to see really.
Dunnottar is my fav, it’s a ruin and looks like something out of Lord of The Rings, very mythical and windswept (actually, think it might’ve been used in Macbeth, not sure tho) sites got pics – http://www.dunnottarcastle.co.uk/
