Chateau de Lichtenberg, France
From series “The greatest France castles ”Year: 13 century.
The defensive castle of Lichtenberg was built in the 13th century. It is named after its first owners, the noble Lichtenberg family. The castle was distinguished by a very beautiful and refined design from the moment of construction. Many unique architectural elements were lost in the 17th century. The army of Louis XIV captured the castle at this time. The castle retained its important strategic importance until the 19th century. It gradually fell into disrepair later.
A complete reconstruction took place in the castle only in the 20th century. It was supplemented with new interesting installations in its course. Lichtenberg is a permanent venue for a wide variety of cultural events today. Art exhibitions and theatrical performances are held in the renovated halls. The castle is also used for seminars.
