Tour description

Follow the tour at your own pace.

An explanatory document presenting the history, architecture and restoration of the monument is available in 14 languages at the ticket desk and for download.

And to complete this discovery :

900 years and still very young 
Haut-Koenigsbourg on display
For almost 900 years, the silhouette of Haut-Koenigsbourg has dominated Alsace. From the initial castle in the 12th century, through its complete reconstruction in the 15th century to its monumental restoration in the 20th century, the fortress has never stopped being reborn.

An exhibition spread over the entire tour circuit invites you to take a closer look at the monument and follow its evolution. In a playful, sometimes offbeat, and always highly visual way, some twenty panels help visitors to understand the fortress' defence system, imagine daily life in the 15th century or find remains from the 12th century... Everyone's talents for observationreflection and  imagination are called upon to read this old castle, which looks like still very young!
