'''Ludwig's Block-Press Castle''', or '''{{world|Clouds|castle}}''', is the castle of [[Meringue Clouds]] in ''[[New Super Luigi U]]''. It is unlocked by completing [[Three-Headed Snake Block]] and its own completion unlocks [[Bowser Jr. Showdown]].

==Layout==
The player starts on a section of the ground with a [[? Block]] containing a power-up, as well as [[Ludwig]]'s icon in the wall. A large mechanical block that moves on platforms with gears on them appears in the following section. [[Fire Bar]]s are found throughout the section, and sections of the ground can be used to avoid the block, one of which has a [[Bony Beetle]] in it. A section with three ? Blocks is found, one of which contains a power-up, and three [[Brick Block]]s with a Bony Beetle on them is found. Another section containing a large mechanical block follows, and the platforms with gears on them are used to cross a pit. More Bony Beetles and Fire Bars are found, and a row of [[coin]]s is found on a platform at the end of the area. Following the section with the large block, the boss door is found next to a [[Hidden Block]] containing a [[Fire Flower]]. A cannon is found through the door, leading to Ludwig's airship. In battle, he clones himself twice. After jumping on the real Ludwig three times, he is defeated.

==[[Star Coin]]s==
* '''Star Coin 1''': Up along one of the top platforms in the area with the first giant block is the first Star Coin.
* '''Star Coin 2''': At the second giant block, the player must run to the left to obtain it, then jump to avoid getting crushed.
* '''Star Coin 3''': Before the boss door, the player must freeze a Bony Beetle and launch it at the Star Coin.
