The whole area is riddled with vineyards, and small cities to visit. Selestat is near the Haut Koenigbourg Castle. This castle is a reconstructed late 1800âs 15th century castle. The castle was sieged and demolished in 1630. It sat for 250 years or so, then was rebuilt a little over a hundred years ago. And awesome reconstruction overall. However, there is nothing like an original castle to visit. Some of the original Siegfried line/ Maginot line is nearby around Selestat. At the upper end of the Route du Vin is Strasbourg, and the lower end is Colmar. Both cities are worth a visit, to explore the Alsace region.
