Motte castrale de Meyenheim stands in Meyenheim (Haut-Rhin), in the Grand Est region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: Middle Ages). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.
In Meyenheim, in the Haut-Rhin department, a medieval motte rises within the town, near the Rue de l'Église, Rue du Vignoble and Rue Basse. This earthen mound, roughly thirty metres across and six metres high, preserves the memory of a castle likely built in the 12th century on a site that had already been occupied in Gallo-Roman times. No standing structure remains: the shape of the land itself is what visitors encounter today.
