  • This castle is so well kept and full of hidden gems. It is also filled with large trees providing shady rest spots. Well worth the hike and €12! Stephanie H.
  • Awesome castle! Definitely worth a visit, although try to avoid weekends if you can. If you can't, go as early as possible. It gets crowded especially with tour buses. Fantastic views of the surrounding landscape. Elyse P.
  • The castle is in deed very authentic! You can definitely feel the medieval vibe in it and also how all the defense structures work! The view is also amazing as it oversee a huge plain across France and Germany. Martin L.
  • My boyfriend and I went there mid November around 16:00. It was such a perfect timing to get the castle for ourselves. Literally was empty. The castle is by itself beautiful. We got incredible photos. Only downside is not too easy to get there, specially during cold season. We rented a car and it was not a big deal. This is a must when you visit Alsace. Denisse DVT.
