The castle is located 480m above sea level in the small village of Wangenbourg. It was erected in the 13th century in Vosges sandstone by the Lords of Wangen, on a natural rocky outcrop. This mount castle served as a defense against looters. The villagers were welcomed into the castle in order to be safe. To access it, you have to cross a bridge that leads directly to the inner courtyard. From there you can admire the many windows, as well as the remains of a magnificent Gothic style fireplace. You can then access the 24m dungeon and climb it if you have the courage. Once the ascent is complete, you will have a breathtaking panorama of the Mossig valley before your eyes. The tour of the tower is however open from April to November. And it is possible to visit the castle on a free visit all year round. Access is free and free all year round. There is parking at the tourist office.
