Château de Lichtenberg

Description

A site for rediscovering memory, living in the present and welcoming the future. Rich and proud of its eventful history since the 13th century, the restored fortress also has a 21st-century identity. A bold architectural gamble has blended sandstone, wood and copper to adapt it to its new tourist and cultural functions. These contemporary additions remain reversible, however, so that future generations can return to the site in its former state. It is now an essential site for historical discovery, exhibitions, meetings, artistic experimentation and entertainment. Thanks to this dynamic approach, the site is now a Heritage Interpretation Center focusing on the theme of Heritage and Artistic Creation.

The permanent exhibition "Le château de Lichtenberg, un chantier perpétuel" (new in 2023) allows you to discover the architectural evolution of the château through the centuries, and to explore more than 800 years of history! Visitors of all ages can try their hand at being an architect, discovering the different eras of construction, or take a behind-the-scenes look at the contemporary restoration of the castle.

The château is open to the public during opening hours, and offers a wide range of visitor facilities. The various exhibition areas, discovery trails with manipulative games and explanatory panels reveal all the secrets of the site.
