Vianden Castle in Vianden Luxembourg Postcard
This postcard features Vianden Castle in Vianden, Luxembourg. It is one of the largest fortified castles west of the Rhine and was built between the 11th and 14th Century on the foundations of a Roman castle and a Carolingian refuge.
Until the early 15th Century it was home to the powerful Counts of Vianden. In 1820 during the reign of King William I of the Netherlands, Prince of Orange-Nassau, Count of Vianden, the castle was sold to a Vianden spice merchant who decided to sell it it piecemeal, starting with the furniture and ending up with the roof slates. As a result the castle was exposed to the elements and fell into ruins.
In 1890 the castle became the property of Grand Duke Adolphe of the elder line of Nassau and remained in the hands of the Grand Ducal family until 1977. It was then transferred into state ownership. It has been painstakingly restored to its former glory and today ranks among the most significant historical monuments of Europe.

Bought 10 Shakespeare quotes postcards and have framed them individually and placed them around the house Love them, some are funny and some are deep and meaningful! Lovely background on some, excellent printed words. A couple of plain white cards with black print - very stricking

My order was probably an awkward one! I asked for a range of different fine-art prints, in postcard size. It was all freshly printed, delivered quickly and at a very reasonable price. Best quality matt finish I've seen on a fine-art print.
