Castle ruin Lichtenberg | Prato allo Stelvio

How to reach Castle ruin Lichtenberg

Lichtenberg enchanted. Surrounded by 14 three-thousand-metre peaks, the castle ruin is one of the most impressive and art-historically valuable sights in South Tyrol.

The extensive complex from the beginnings of the 13th century was owned by the Counts of Tyrol until 1513. The freely accessible castle ruins in the upper Vinschgau are still owned by the Counts Khuen-Belasi. The castle complex in the Vinschgau, which can also be reached on foot from Prad, captivates visitors with its size and a magnificent cycle of frescoes, most of which can only be seen in the Innsbruck Ferdinandeum Museum.
