I assume you mean, highest of the string family. It is the smallest of the 4 orchestral stringed instruments (violin, viola, cello, and double bass), and is therefore able to produce the highest-pitched sounds. The shorter the string which is made to vibrate, the higher its sound.

Because the violin has the thinnest strings out of all string instruments. And the thinner the strings, the higher the pitch. That is why the violin has the highest pitch.
