FRANCE. ALSACE. BAS RHIN (67) HAUT KOENIGSBOURG CASTLE. OVERLOOKING THE PLAIN, THIS IS THE BEST-KNOWN FORTIFIED CASTLE IN ALSACE AND ONE OF THE REGION'S MOST VISITED MONUMENTS. DATING BACK TO THE 12TH CENTURY, THE BUILDING UNDERWENT MAJOR ALTERATIONS IN THE 15TH CENTURY AND WAS COMPLETELY RESTORED AT THE REQUEST OF EMPEROR WILHELM II FROM 1900 ONWARDS. IN THE MIDDLE AGES, THE HIGHEST POINT ON WHICH THE CASTLE STANDS WAS USED TO KEEP WATCH OVER ALL THE WINE, WHEAT AND SALT ROUTES CROSSING ALSACE. A 270 M LONG FORTRESS PERCHED ALMOST 800 M HIGH, IT IS NEITHER A MIRAGE NOR A ?GRANDE ILLUSION?, TO REFER TO THE FILM SHOT BY JEAN RENOIR IN 1937, BUT A MONUMENT THAT CANNOT BE IGNORED. ON THE RIGHT, THE VOSGES MOUNTAINS. Photo by Stephane Compoint/Only France/ABACAPRESS.COM
