Built at the end of the 13th century by the lords of Falkenstein under the bishop of Strasbourg's orders, the Ramstein castle was built to control he access through the Zinsel valley.
But during the 14th century, the Lords of ramstein transformed the castle into a den of thieves, robbing and exorting the whole region.
