What is a favorite past time of dictators? Spending money (that often doesn’t belong to them). From king-dictators to military-dictators and every other type of dictator in between, dictators like building and buying things. What did royalty of medieval Europe like building? Grand castles.

We have already seen a few European castle. Today I have to share yet another one — Schwerin Castle of  Schwerin, Germany. Check it out:

Can’t you just imagine a dragon flying overhead and burning this to a crisp?

Oh, and by the way, while there are reports of a ‘Schwerin Castle’ since the 10th century, the castle you see in the above photo was built in the 19th century. So it isn’t from the medieval ages,  but still nonetheless an awesome sight.
