For such a stern, gloomy, warlike people, it's hard to argue that they didn't lead the world in whimsy when they built some of their castles.

Der Wonne seligen Saal
bewachen mir Tür und Tor:
Mannes Ehre, ewige Macht,
ragen zu endlosem Ruhm!

Vollendet das ewige Werk!
Auf Berges Gipfel die Götterburg;
prächtig prahlt der prangende Bau!
Wie im Traum ich ihn trug,
wie mein Wille ihn wies, stark und schön
steht er zur Schau; hehrer, herrlicher Bau!

Mad King Ludwig II was responsible for practically all of those whImsical castles, so there’s a whimsical reason for the flights of fancy. Bavarians weren’t the stern, warlike Germans of popular perception. Those would be Prussians.
