Abstract
The General Court of the European Union rejects an invalidity action filed against the Neuschwanstein trade mark holding that it was an invented original name which refers to the castle as a building and functions as a trade mark. The court thereby strengthens the position of owners of historical sites who can now register the name of their site as a trade mark to ensure that the name is not exploited by third parties.
