Description
This model was originally created by Elia, aka @3d_steady_go.
This amazingly detailed model also hides a secret - the fountain is a pin that when released allows a drawer to slide from underneath, where you can store small objects!
This castle is the ancestral seat of the imperial House of Hohenzollern, who gave Prussia and what is now Germany many kings and nobles. It is located on top of a hill in Baden-Württemberg, in southwest Germany. The original building dates to the 11th century, but it has been destroyed and rebuilt two more times since. The third and current castle was built between 1846 and 1867. It is one of the most visited castles in Germany, and it has served as location for several films (from Wikipedia).
MiniWorld3D is happy to bring this model to life as a homage to the people of Germany. This model was created from scratch by hand and brain to ensure printability. Please give credit, it's all about spreading culture!

Suggested parameters:
For better details, print slow, such as 15 or 20mm/s for outer perimeters.
Fine-tune retraction to avoid stringing.
Perimeters: 2
Top layers: 3
Infill: as low as 12%, lightning pattern ok
In order for the secret drawer to work, the main base of the castle needs to be printed with supports.
The roofs could be printed separately at once in a different color and then glued together to the main castle to achieve a bicolor effect.
Sanding may be necessary for a proper fit, as tolerances vary a lot between filaments, printers, and settings.
