일하우젠 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

Magnificent, not to be missed

The large wall at the rear of the ruins has been reinforced. The keep is also now dilapidated. To prevent anyone from climbing the tower, the lower staircase has been removed.

Not only from the castles but also from the hiking trail, the view of Ribeauvillé, the Rhine plain and the Black Forest is phenomenal when the visibility is good.

Saunt Ulric Castle is the largest of the three ruins. It is currently undergoing partial renovation. A small section is cordoned off, and caution is advised in other areas. However, the keep is accessible.

From various viewpoints in Ribeauvillé you can sometimes see all three castles together.

A charming Alsatian village with approximately 4,700 inhabitants. The old town is well worth seeing with its colorful houses. Ribeauvillé is also very popular because of the hike to its three castle ruins that overlook the town.

Most of the towers and parts of the city wall have been preserved on the side facing the Strengbach stream (in the south of the city). The Butcher's Tower stands prominently in the city center, separating the Old Town from the central part of the city.

The Butcher's Tower was built in 1260 and once separated the Upper and Lower Town. It owes its name to the slaughterhouse and the butcher's stalls that were set up in front of the tower.
