Cochem Castle, Germany
It is generally assumed that Cochem Castle was built around the year 1000 by the palatinate count Ezzo, son and successor to palatinate count Hermann Pusilius. The castle had a long and colorful history until French King Louis XIV had his troops obliterate it in 1689.

Glücksburg Castle, Germany
Glücksburg Castle is the ancestral home of the Dukes of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburg, and has been used occasionally by the Danish Kings.
