Château Saint-Paul, Medieval castle in Wissembourg, France.
The three-story square tower of Château Saint-Paul measures 7 meters on each side and features architectural elements typical of thirteenth-century fortifications.
The castle originated in 1262 under Abbot Edelin of Wissembourg, transforming from an early church site into a fortified structure completed by 1293.
The castle represents the evolution of medieval defensive architecture in Alsace, transitioning from a religious complex to a fortified noble residence.
The castle remains under private ownership, requiring visitors to observe posted restrictions and respect the current inhabitants' privacy.
The castle features a high arched door on its second level, with additional entrances including a large braced arch marked by an 1830 sculpted slab.
