Château de Hohenstein, Medieval castle in Oberhaslach, France
The castle stands on a rocky hill at 444 meters elevation, featuring a northern keep with residential buildings and outbuildings behind it.
The Hohenstein family built the castle in the early 13th century, and by century's end, the Bishop of Strasbourg became a joint owner.
The French Ministry of Culture designated the Château de Hohenstein as a monument historique in 1898, recognizing its architectural value.
The castle site connects to intermediate hiking trails, including the Sculpture Symposium path and routes leading to the Nideck's giants.
Bishop Berthold de Bucheck was held prisoner in the castle during 1337, leading him to take control and destroy it after his release.
