    Lichtenberg Castle was first mentioned in a document in 1196. The oldest component is the keep. The facility is in very good condition. It is not for nothing that Lichtenberg Castle is one of the oldest, fully preserved Staufer castle complexes north of the Alps. Be sure to take a look at the chapel next to the gate with its decorative wall paintings.

    The gates of the castle are open from April to October every Sunday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Entry is 3 euros.

      Is privately owned. From here you have a good view and you can go hiking and cycling. Parking possibilities are available.

        From the castle you have a great “vision”. However, the castle has been restored for a long time
