Château de Mouterhouse stands in Mouterhouse (Moselle), in the Grand Est region of France. Admission is free. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
The château of Mouterhouse, in the Moselle department, survives today only as a quiet spot by a pond, facing the Notre-Dame-de-Bon-Secours chapel. This small hunting lodge was built in the mid-16th century for a count of the House of Bitche-Deux-Ponts, before being destroyed by Swedish troops a few decades later. No standing structure remains, but the site, set on a small island, can still be located by walkers in this part of the Northern Vosges.
What to know

- Access is on foot, through the forest, with no organised tour or visitor facilities.
- Parking is available near the Notre-Dame-de-Bon-Secours chapel, at the northern edge of Mouterhouse.
- In autumn, it is worth heeding signs warning of hunting activity in the area.
