"BurgRestaurant" at Castle Lichtenberg
Enjoy in a historic ambience where knights and lords of the castle once lived.
The castle restaurant is charmingly situated between the keep and the southern curtain wall. With up to 120 seats and a wide range of culinary delights, it is a popular destination for young and old.
In summer, you can dine and relax on the restaurant terrace in the shade of an old lime tree and surrounded by palm trees with an almost Mediterranean flair. In winter, the house invites you to warm up in the romantic dining room with mulled wine and punch and enjoy the magnificent view of the snow-covered valley with the town of Kusel. The fireplace room is suitable for entertaining in closed company.
