13:05 My understanding is that the inspiration for the Cinderella Castle in Disneyworld is Neuschwanstein Castle in Bavaria, Germany.

Also some of the French chateaux

Great video. Now I have a castle bucket list to see.

Some good choices for the top castles there. I've visited 5 of them myself. One correction, though: Conwy castle is *not* concentric. I think it's actually the only one of Edward I's "ring of iron" castles around Wales that wasn't concentric, because the terrain didn't really allow for an outer curtain wall.

Fair!

The place is called Marienburg, not Malbork.

No Wawel castle? 🤔

It is Bodiam Castle.

What! No Windsor Castle? 😮

No Malbork castle? It's the biggest in Europe built entirely of brick!

Malbork is the 3rd castle in the video
