Château Saint-Sixte

The Château Saint-Sixte is a 12th-century castle in the commune of Freistroff in the Moselle département of France.

Separated from the village on the left bank of the Nied, it has a strange oval plan, surrounding by ancient moats.

The six originally separate buildings are roofed with two slopes of tiles and arranged around an entirely enclosed courtyard.

[1] The château is open to visitors every afternoon from April to October, with guided tours at weekends.

In 2007, Philippe Gehl bought the castle from his two brothers, and continues the work with the assistance of a restoration association.
