Château Klinglin stands in Illkirch-Graffenstaden (Bas-Rhin), in the Grand Est region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: first half of the 18th century). No visits are on record for this building.
In Illkirch-Graffenstaden, the Klinglin castle no longer exists as such: built in the first half of the 18th century, it was destroyed during the French Revolution. What remains today is limited to the park and its orangery, a building that survived through the centuries where the main residence did not. A visit here suits those interested in this modest remnant rather than a castle in the traditional sense.
