 Haut Koenigsbourg8 centuries of history Since its construction in the 12th century, the Haut-Koenigsbourg castle has been a constant witness to both European conflicts and rivalry between lords, kings and emperors. A number of illustrious owners each left their mark on the castle?s history, and successive events even led to changes in the castle?s structure? Exploring the site Sitting an imposing 757 metres above the Alsace plain, the Haut-Koenigsbourg castle has all the necessary assets for a fortress. Its strategic position, relatively easy to defend in former times, now provides visitors with an exceptional panoramic view over the Alsace plain, the Vosges Mountains, the Black Forest and even -on a clear day- the Alps. However, take the decision to cross the drawbridge and you will be able to explore the castle?s fully-fitted and furnished living quarters and discover its collections of medieval weapons. Then climb to the top of the keep and the grand bastion??? Take a tour of this exceptional site? | ||||||||||
