Tips from the Community

Nicolas Vergnaud
January 30, 2026, Petit château du Meisenbach

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.

The centre of the old town is the imposing castle... there is a lot to discover here... it is also worth taking a walk around the outer walls, an underground cistern invites you to explore: https://chateauxfortsalsace.com/fr/chateau/chateau-de-petite-pierre
