LEGO Architecture Neuschwanstein Castle 21063

I have been to the real castle several times. This set does it extremely well, the accuracy and detail are way better then any I've seen or expected. I hope you make sets of Linderhof and the King's House on Sachen. That would made a great collection!

Most frustrating build I have ever experienced to the point I gave up during bag 20

I bought the Neuschwanstein Castle for my son who is in the Navy, for Christmas! He is a Lego fan and absolutely loved the gift. He couldn’t wait to build it! Beautiful castle to say the least! Thank you so much!

My wife and I bought this as a compromise, she loves jigsaw puzzles & I don’t, but we wanted a shared quiet, focusing activity. Our son was a huge Lego Star Wars fan, and at 27 still has his Lego Death Star. This was a challenge to build, some of the instructional drawings didn’t give the best perspective of the pieces or how the fit together, especially when building both sides of a section that were not identical. Also telling the colors of some of the parts was somewhat difficult when you have a bag with several different shades of the same color family. I also agree with other reviewers about the large tower’s stability, any movement of the model and you can see it wobble. I will probably take it apart and add some “sticky-tack” poster adhesive to a few of the joints where the shafts connect, and where it connects to the base, in order to stop the wobbles. All in all though, we really did enjoy the project, and will display it in our home. We have already purchased Himeji Castle for our next one. I wish that the US Capitol & White House models were still available, as we would like to build those too.

Love this so much. One of my favourite sets of all. Such a nice display piece

It looks beautiful I love the castle and the overall build but it is one of the worst case of inflated pieces count and it really need to stop! Almost every piece is 1x1 and even in places where it makes no sense. There is so many places where there is a 1x1 that should have been 2 x 1 and it makes the build less sturdy. I’ve had walls fall apart multiple times because they used tiny parts instead of proper 1×2 bricks that would have fixed the issue. I’ve been waiting for this set for a long time, and it really does look great in my collection, but the actual build experience was infuriating. Not because it was difficult, but because I genuinely felt cheated.

I've had a soft spot for Schloss N since I was a kid. This set nicely does the original justice. First architecture set I've built - I really like the smaller scale and finer detail. A lot of thought (and skill !) has clearly gone into the design. The 3D building instructions in the builder app really come into their own on a complex 3D build like this ( I always use the builder app now). The end result makes a really nice display piece.

I LOVE the architecture series. But this was an absolute abomination. So many of the studs and bricks were left hanging intentionally, with a completely hollow inner shell. The instructions had 3 "major" errors, and it took several attempts to rectify the missing/erroneous parts. Compared to Notre Dame, this was a TERRIBLE purchase. Do better lego.

Great build! Went together trouble free and a great addition to my architecture collection.

Not only was this an amazing build, the history behind the Castle was amazing. Building something that is patterned after something real makes the experience that much better.

Product came damaged. Looks like someone used the box as a punching bag. Now I have to waste time returning it and waiting for a replacement.

I was really looking forward to this build and the overall result is ok (Fall colors look better), but the scale is so small that you end up with sooo many tiny individual bricks. I would normally have a completed a build this size in a week or so...this took me over a month and I built two other sets in the interim. It was just hard to get into it. One of the bags also had 5 of the wrong pieces (supposed to be solid sand single round pieces and they were gold perforated pieces that didn't match the surrounding brick). I scavenged from my smalls leftovers from many other sets for all but one, but was still kind of annoying. By contrast, the Botanical Garden and Gumball Machine were fun builds. It does go well into my "travel memories" collection, but if you're just looking for a fun build, lego has some better options.

While there are some minor inaccuracies, it's still an amazing set and display

Definitely one of the best builds I've done in a while, for the small windows, I didn't find them annoying so I practically just zoned out while putting them on haha!

The castle is pieced together on four single rail bricks that balance on one link on each end. There is no support under the middle of the structure and it is virtually impossible to snap the individual builds into place without risk of total collapse. Definitely not a beginner build - needs to be a builder with lots of extra bricks on hand to stabilize the structure properly from the start.

Half way done. Up to this point clear direction pieces fit seamlessly. Me and wife have lots of fun putting it together. Brought back memories of visiting the real castle back in the late 80's.

The majority of your time will be attempting to straighten the small windows (why not print the small windows onto 1x1 bricks), what a missed opportunity for a 10/10 set.

Amazing and unique build techniques. Overall looks great! Definitely top architecture sets.

This is the 2nd item I have received and pieces are missing. When I tried to get the missing piece they wound not send it because I have gone over the limit of requesting missing pieces.
