美しい眺め

Great campsite with a kiosk, a beautiful view of Lichtenberg Castle, and a small lake for swimming. The showers and restrooms are clean. There's even a hairdryer, something I haven't seen at any campsite before. The food is delicious. They don't typically rent out for one night, but they reserved a spot for us after an email request.

Great bridge with grid floor towards Reinheimer Seewiesen

The former school in Lichtenberg is a typical school building from around 1900. The building stands on a massive base and has large arched windows; adjacent to this is a stair tower made of quarry stone and made of granite with sandstone surrounds.

From here, donkeys transported the water in barrels to the castle and the castle settlement. This is where the name comes from.

The most impressive and picturesque view of the Renaissance castle can be seen from the Bollwerkshügel, about 400 meters from Lichtberg Castle. It was built between 1570 and 1581 by master builder Jakob Kesselhut on behalf of the Landgrave of Hesse-Darmstadt, Georg I. As it was used less and less by subsequent generations, the 16th century structure was preserved. For hikers, the castle is a striking landmark that can be easily seen from many places. Here, from the Bollwerkshügel, it is almost within reach across the valley.

Backgrounds are quite interesting.

The St. Jost chapel was first mentioned in 1526 and fell into disrepair in the 19th century. In 2010 a new forest chapel was built.
