In the vicinity of Lichtenstein Castle there are traces of medieval agriculture. Elongated bulges testify to this use, the so-called vaulted fields. These served to supply the castle. After leaving the castle in 1567, reforestation began.

On the Lichtenstein and on the Bauernberg in general you can see a large number of impressive, funnel-shaped hollow forms. In the karst landscape there are mainly 2 types of these hollow forms: sinkholes and sinkholes. For this reason, the Lichtenstein and its surroundings are a nature reserve.
