What to expect
Perched on its rocky spur between Strasbourg and Colmar, the Haut-Koenigsbourg castle imposes powerful sensations from the first glance. With its massive silhouette from another time, it transports to the heart of medieval history. Walls of enclosure, square keep, door of honor, one finds oneself immersed in the universe of chivalry. From the 12th century, the lords succeeded each other. A stronghold of the Hohenstaufen Germanic princely family, the fortress quickly passed into the hands of the Alsatian nobles Rathsamhausen. Then, for a short time, as a den of brigands, she saw the ambitions of Emperor William II extended. In this place steeped in history, magic works on young and old alike.Opening hours of the Haut-Koenigsbourg castle
