Lichtenberg Castle (German: Burg Lichtenberg) has a length of 425m and is the biggest castle ruin of Germany. It is located near Thallichtenberg in the district of Kusel in Rhineland-Palatinate.
The castle was built around 1200 and was owned afterwards by the counts of Veldenz and by the dukes of Palatinate-Zweibrücken. The castle was never conquered or destroyed by assaults. It was severely damaged by a large fire on 26 October 1799.
