Château de Lutzelhardt, Medieval castle in Obersteinbach, France.
Lutzelhardt Castle stands upon a sandstone outcrop rising twenty meters high and extending sixty meters in length in the Northern Vosges mountains.
Built in 1250 by the Lutzelhardt family, the castle changed ownership to the Fleckensteins in 1363 before being burned by Strasbourg troops in 1397.
The remaining structures include a lower courtyard with buildings at the rock base, a square keep, and a residence positioned on the highest section.
Parking is located 2 kilometers from Obersteinbach on the D3 road toward Bitche, followed by a 20-minute walk to reach the castle.
The semi-troglodytic construction of the castle integrates naturally into the rock formation, creating an architecture that adapts to the natural relief.
