Origin and history

Katzenberg Castle is a monument located in the commune of Lutzelhouse, in the Grand Est region. Although its time of construction is not specified in available sources, its name and location suggest historical significance for the region. The castles of this region, often linked to medieval or modern periods, served as strategic points for the control of territories or residences for local lords.

In Lutzelhouse, as in other Alsatian villages, these buildings could play a central role in social and economic organization, reflecting power dynamics and prevailing agricultural or artisanal activities of the time.
