Tips

  • The old town of Lichtenfels has retained its typical Franconian character to this day. In the 14th century, the town was surrounded by a ring wall with three gate towers: the Bamberg Gate, the Kronach Gate (both are still preserved today) and the Coburg Gate. Parts of the old city wall are still visible today. Of the five defensive towers, the "Red Tower" is still standing.
    The heart of the town is the historic baroque town hall on the market square. It was built in 1742 according to plans by Justus Heinrich Dientzenhofer.
    The town palace towers over the roofs of the old town. After an eventful history, it is now the cultural center of the German basket town with concerts, lectures and art exhibitions. The ballroom can be rented for representative events of all kinds - from classical concerts to wedding celebrations.

  • A special highlight of the city is the ubiquitous wickerwork. Whether modern or traditional, it is always very beautiful craftsmanship.
