Wasserbourg is situated in the Vosges Mountains, in the valley of the small river Krebsbach, and at the foot of the summit “Petit Ballon”. Surface area: 947 hectares.
The village was first mentioned in the 9th century. The first village name was Wasenberg until the 17th century, because of the field.
The ruins of the Castle Strohbourg built in 1222, by Andréas de Gisberg, still stand today. It was probably inhabited until the 17th century. But the access is forbidden to the public. This castle, situated on the top of a hill, allowed villagers to be informed when an attack was imminent.
