About the location

Château de Brosses

The countess Marie of Brushes and his husband the baron Hervé de Brosses were the last occupants of the castle. The baron Alfred Hervé-Gruyer, born in 1860 in Strasbourg, grandfather of the countess, gave his name to this castle. His(Her,Its) family was related in Coulaux, who(which) arranges several factories of hardware store(hardware) in the region of Molsheim-Mutzig. He bought this house in 1890 from the family Hecht (Hecht in German means pike, where from the fish on the turret). According to a registration(inscription) representing on the vault of the cellar, this house, in former days castle of the baron Hervé, would have been established in 1714 and could have been built by the architect of the castle of Ottrott. The house was restored in 1820 and finally transformed under the second empire (1868) with the addition of a round turret by the family Hecht. He(It) was seized by the Germans in 1918 which emptied him(it) of the library(bookcase) and of the official documents and suffered from another pillage during the Second World War. The building was bought by the city council in 1999 from the family Hervé-Gruyer. A big work of restoration(catering) was begun(undertaken), because it was necessary to demolish(destroy) and to rebuild the point(headland) as before is of the castle.
