Château du Grand Ringelstein, Medieval castle in Oberhaslach, France.
The ruins of the castle feature a pentagonal keep at the summit and a polygonal enclosure preserved on the southwest side with arched openings.
The castle, built in 1125 by the Eguisheim family, passed to the Bishop of Strasbourg before its destruction in 1470 during regional conflicts.
The castle exemplifies medieval defensive architecture of Alsace through its pink sandstone structures and construction methods from the 12th century.
Hikers can reach the site at 664 meters elevation through several marked trails starting from the village of Oberhaslach in Bas-Rhin.
A cistern carved into the rock stands as a notable element of the medieval fortress water supply system.
