Guess the Location!

[Shaw]

Blimey, if we're just going on flag colours, there's a few out there - Croatia, Czech Republic, Iceland, Norway, Russia, Serbia, Slovakia, and Slovenia. And on that basis, looking at the castle and the roof to the right, I'm going to ask if this is the Czech Republic ?

I also need a new monitor - I can't see ANY colours on that flag

Not Czech Republic, or any of the countries mentioned.

 

[Shaw]

Can't see colours on the flag either. I would say there are two flags out there, the upper one maybe with dark circles / dots (?).
For the colours there is also Luxembourg, very similar to the Netherlands.

Yes, this castle is in Luxembourg!

Yes Stan, that's the place.

 

[stagor]

Yes Stan, that's the place.

Thanks Stewart, I'll let someone else answer, I have been to this location a few times, staying at the caravan site below the Chateau.

Well that’s weird...I thought my flag of 3 upside down clams was the only one ?

That's interesting Stan. I stayed a couple of times at a hotel there, which had a campsite next to it, although the campsite you mention is nearer the castle.

Is the castle part of the walled city? I was there in 1969! Had some wonderful orange sherbet in an orange shaped frozen looking orange with one the famous lite European biscuits they serve with sherbet. At least that’s the way I remember it. ?

The castle is surrounded by a wall, but is beside a small town/village, and not part of a walled city.

It doesn't look like anyone else is going to have a go at this one

Thanks oldmanramen, I'll try this one. Can anyone name this castle?

It doesn't look like anyone else is going to have a go at this one, so perhaps Stan (Stagor) will name this castle.

OK Stewart, I think it is, Bourscheid Castle over looking the river Sure in Luxemburg.
If I am correct the board is open to anyone with a suitable photo.

Yes, that's the castle Stan.

Looks German or Swiss-German...

 

[Seahawk]

Yes, German...

 

[Shaw]

Yes, German...

I know this castle from a holiday in Germany many years ago, but I'll hold back for someone else to name it.

Nuremberg?

Nuremberg?

@Seahawk is away, but it looks like you got it!
You're up...

 

[Seahawk]

Sorry guys, been busy painting my new greenhouse. Yes, Nuremberg was correct. Next man up!

I’ll get something posted later today.
We visited Nuremberg in 2014 and something about that shot looked vaguely familiar. I don’t remember it from that angle as I recall walking in from the tower side. I do, however, remember being a bit pissed off that the shot I wanted ended up having a very posh, new car parked in a lousy spot - for photography. It felt like a total eclipse of history with the new car blocking my shot.
