Château de Bonnefontaine, a castle in the French department of Bas-Rhin, features neoclassical architecture and a history linked to a mineral water spring. It is an example of early 19th-century architecture.

History+

The origins of the estate date back to 1603, when a mineral water spring was discovered. This discovery inspired a banker from Basel in 1816 to build a thermal spa, complemented by a castle, a park, and a dance hall, the latter no longer existing today. The castle building was completed between 1818 and 1822. The banker sold the estate in 1836. Since 1878, Château de Bonnefontaine has been owned by the Schlumberger family and was listed as a Monument historique in 1991.
