Château d'Helfedange, Medieval castle in Guinglange, France.
The rectangular fortress comprises four building sections arranged around a square courtyard, with two circular towers defining its exterior structure.
Built in the 12th century as a fortified farm, the castle changed ownership multiple times, including acquisition by Baron Pierre-Ernest de Créhange in 1602.
The castle served as the first location of the Moselle Normal School for teachers between 1822 and 1832, contributing to regional education.
Interior photography requires permission from the guides or castle owner, who conduct tours through the medieval structure.
The castle walls, measuring two meters thick, contain seven medieval bread ovens integrated into their structure.
