Beautiful waterfall, although it has relatively little water in the summer... Lots of people always gather in the adjacent stream bed, as it is a nice, shady place for a break...

It is worth climbing the steep steps of the ruins to the top of the remains of the tower... From the top you have a wonderful view over the wooded hills of the Vosges...

The castle ruins in the natural area, which have been listed as a historical monument since 1898, are not the remains of one but of two castles. The lower castle (Unternideck) was probably built in the first half of the 13th century. Today, the square keep and a fortified wall that separated the residential building can still be seen. The keep shows a change in the structure that indicates an interruption in construction (formats and unevenness of the stones, structure of the vaults...). The upper castle (Obernideck) was probably built in the 14th century. Its ruins are less well preserved, only a few heavily restored walls can still be seen. A castle on the Nideck was first mentioned in 1264. Sire Burckart lived here at that time. From 1336, the castle was a fief of the Diocese of Strasbourg and was then given to the citizens of Strasbourg. The inhabitants of both castles concluded several truces, especially in 1393 and 1422. These "peace treaties", which bear witness to the history of the place, laid down the rules for coexistence, supplies and armament of the fortress. From the 15th century onwards, the castle changed hands several times in successive attacks. The castle was finally destroyed in 1636 in the Thirty Years' War. Text of the information board

It really splashes here! In summer, however, the waterfall is said to mutate into a small trickle. Tips here: https://www.visit.alsace/de/218006759-der-wasserfall-von-nideck/
