Château du Grand-Geroldseck, Medieval castle ruins in Haegen, France.
The square keep of Grand-Geroldseck Castle features stone walls measuring three meters in thickness, with visible remains of residential chambers and cellars.
Built around 1120 by the Geroldseck family, solicitors of Marmoutier Abbey, the castle underwent modifications during the 13th, 14th, and 15th centuries.
The castle represents early medieval defensive architecture in the northern Vosges region, displaying construction techniques from different periods of fortification development.
Visitors can reach the castle through a marked path from the Haut-Barr Castle parking area, with a walking time of approximately ten minutes.
The castle sits 500 meters away from its smaller counterpart, Petit-Geroldseck, forming a rare dual-castle configuration in the Alsace region.
