This photo was taken in 1964, and the subject was the castle in the background, but I don't know which castle it is. With luck, we have a nice shot of a Variant! Can anyone tell me the location of this photo? It would most likely be in the Western Germany/France area. Thanks!

Hi, it looks a lot to me like the castle of Teck, near Stuttgart (where I live) in Southern Germany, state of Baden-Württemberg:

Thank you for your reply. I've just discovered that the route for this trip began in Stuttgart and proceeded to Switzerland, so your castle Teck makes a lot of sense.

Having worked all around Germany, that reminds me of Festung Marienberg, in Würzburg.

Thanks for the idea, I'll look into it.
