Also known as Haut-Andlau, Andlau Castle is an atypical fortification with its two towers which stand on the heights of the Alsatian vineyard. The place is perfect as a hiking objective from Andlau, Mittelbergheim or Barr.

September 29, 2024,Vogesen: Von Andlau zum Chateau d‘Andlau, weiter über das Chateau du Spesbourg und dem Chateau du Landsberg nach Barr und zurück

A beautiful circular walk that takes you past three castles in the Andlau region: the striking Château d'Andlau with its two towers, which can be seen from the Rhine plain, the Château de Spesbourg with its 24 m high keep, and the large Château du Landsberg. The first two offer great views of Andlau and the Rhine plain. This shady …

October 1, 2024,Barr und Mittelbergheim: Burgen und Weinberge

In the morning I followed an inspiration and wanted to enjoy the great silhouette of the Black Forest again, among other things.
I googled it quickly.
Hit! Vineyards, castles, great forest paths sounds perfect.
Great parking space (I thought so, but if you drive out carefully the chassis will scrape, so don't drive in if the car is lowered) from …

Very nice hike to 3 castle ruins with wonderful views. However, the last hurricane knocked down many trees and some of these still block the paths. Sometimes you have to improvise because some paths don't exist (anymore).

Landsberg Castle above Barr is a ruin worth seeing. We hike there from our place in Mittelbergheim via Barr. With great sunshine and a clear view, a particularly nice round today. Autumn colors, view of the Black Forest and even as far as the Alps. In addition, narrow and enchanted forest paths with moss-covered rocks. Was worth it

April 26, 2025,Alsace/Vosges - Etappe 1: Barr - Château du Landsberg - Château d'Andlau - Andlau

A good start to the tour under blue skies in truly beautiful Barr. On Saturday, there was also a small market devoid of hipster frills and tourist trappings. Relaxed French people chatting as they shop for fruit, vegetables, meat, and poultry for the week. Very atmospheric.
