Married in love and to God true,
Brings happiness and blessings without rue,
With hard work and care of God’s own,
We have made this good house our home.
This is what is carved in stone over the doorway of this beautiful castle in the Spessart. It was a reward to Sir Hamann Echter from the Archbishop of Mainz for his faithful services as Master Woodsman.
Wait.. wasn’t it a Woodsman who was supposed to kill Snow White, but couldn’t bring himself to do it? Hmmm…. The legend of Snow White originated from this place in the Spessart, not 5 miles from this very castle. I’m sure the Grimm Brothers were inside it, too.
Doesn’t look like the place that Prince Charming would “live happily ever after” with Snow White? The castle is real. Sir Hamann Echter was real. He raised ten children in this house.
Now, who wants to come look inside? Days of Yore Travel - We Take You There.
