In Saverne, the Oberhof refers to the remains of a former episcopal palace, once connected to the lower castle now known as the Château des Rohan. Partly demolished in 1680 during the construction of the episcopal administration building, only one protected architectural element survives: the door of the stair turret. The site is mainly of interest for its history tied to the bishops of Strasbourg and the urban development of the upper town.
