Although the few remaining ruins of this structure are called a castle, it appears that the site was first used as a Roman temple and then as a Christian church. Nearby are superb rock formations typical of the Northern Vosges Mountains.

The Church of Saint-Félix-de-Cantalice was built in 1918 in Wingen-sur-Moder. It is distinguished by its onion-domed bell tower, the spire of which was damaged during the Second World War and subsequently repaired. It overlooks the surrounding plain beautifully.
