This small castle is nowhere near as impressive as its two neighboring castles. But the climb is still worth it.

Elongated rock castle above the Zorn valley, southwest of Saverne. After a varied history, it has been state property for approx. 150 years. Varied structures from different eras in the inner courtyard. Great view over the Rhine valley and the northern Vosges.

Presumably, the small and large Geroldseck were once built together. Today, remnants of the ruins can still be seen, but they are still worth seeing.

Castle after castle after castle...This one has little view, is therefore less visited and therefore much quieter than various neighboring castles. Nice, rainproof bench
