The terrace and fountain of Château d’Osthoffen
Osthoffen, an Alsatian château with roots in the tenth century and rebuilt in the sixteenth and eighteenth, is listed together with its moats, its terrace and its fountain.
From the source
Château d'Osthoffen is a château at Osthoffen, Bas-Rhin, in the Grand Est region of France. The recorded building campaigns date from the 10th, 16th and 18th centuries. It is protected as a monument historique at the second level (inscrit). Details are drawn from the Base Mérimée of the French Ministry of Culture.
Editorial reading
The record offers no narrative, only the 1963 listing: the façades and roofs of the main building, the stair turrets in full, the moats, the terrace and the fountain. Terrace and fountain are garden elements, and they are the part of the setting the protection singles out; the record says nothing further about the grounds.
