The Hapsburg family built Château du Haut-Kœnigsbourg in the Middle Ages to keep an eye on the wine and wheat routes to the north, as well as the silver and salt routes from west to east. During the Thirty Years' War, the Swedish army devastated the château-fort. It was later restored in 1899 as a symbol of Germany retaking Alsace from the French.
Murals, antediluvian furnishings, cast-iron stoves, and medieval weaponry and furniture may be found within the castle.
The tall tower offers panoramic views over both Germany and France. You can identify the Black Forest in Germany and the nearby French town Orschwiller town and the Vosges Mountains.
Château du Haut-Kœnigsbourg is open on Mondays between 10.30 am and 5.45 pm and every other day of the week between 9.15 am to 5.45 pm.
