# Château de Birkenwald

Sommerau, Bas-Rhin, Grand Est

Château de Birkenwald stands in Sommerau (Bas-Rhin), in the Grand Est region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: third quarter of the 16th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

In Sommerau, in the Bas-Rhin, the château de Birkenwald stands out for a look unusual in Alsace: its lines echo the architecture of the Périgord region, brought back by the bailiff of Marmoutier who had the building erected from 1562 onward. The estate passed through several families over the centuries, from the abbey of Andlau to the descendants of the baron de Latouche, its current owners. A staircase linking the road to the château is part of the protected site.

**Practical details not verified yet.** We know this château and where it is, but we have not yet checked its opening hours or prices at the source. We would rather tell you than display something we are unsure of.
