Probably not correctly :)  I'm still trying to figure out how you say "Keep" 
(as in the main part of the castle) in German.

Simple.  I cheat.

Click over to MS Word (or the equivalent); click on "insert", then "symbol" 
scroll down until you find the character you want - highlight it, click the 
"insert" button - close that.  Then you highlight the character, copy and 
paste.   It is also possible to use the "Character map" program in Windows 
to do this also (using Word allows you to make sure the word is spelled 
correctly)
