Burg Lichtentann, Medieval castle ruins in Henndorf am Wallersee, Austria.

The castle ruins stand at 736 meters above sea level, featuring restored entrance gates with arrow slits and remains of the main castle walls.

First documented in 1282, the castle belonged to the Lords of Tann until their lineage ended in 1398, after which it passed to various caretakers.

The site represents medieval Austrian fortification architecture and serves as an educational resource for students studying regional medieval history.

Visitors can reach the ruins through a marked hiking path from Berg district, with a steep ascent leading to benches and tables for resting.

The castle grounds contain a grass-covered interior with visible remains of a masonry well, demonstrating medieval water management techniques.
