To make a day of it
Château de Gendersberg stands in Hanviller (Moselle), in the Grand Est region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 18th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
On the Gentersberg plateau, set apart from the village of Hanviller in Moselle, stands a château built in the 18th century for a finance official of the Duke of Lorraine who was ennobled in 1723. The elongated building, flanked at each end by projecting sections, bears on its doorways the combined coats of arms of two families who successively owned it. Now converted into an isolated farm, it retains traces of its noble past in its facades and roof, the only parts protected as a historic monument.
