The municipality of Lichtenegg is located at 770 m above sea level, in the heart of the Bucklige Welt and offers a wide range of activities for young and old on an area of over 35 km². Be it the variety and quality of our regional products, the delicacies of our inns or the beauty of our nature - Lichtenegg is always worth a visit.

The place name Lichtenegg is derived from "lichtes Eck" (light corner), an outcrop of land exposed to the sun. The name goes back to the time of clearing and the first settlements. The name was first mentioned in a document in 1252: de Lihteneck.
