Burg Lichtenwerth, Medieval castle in Münster, Austria.

The rectangular fortress includes an outer castle section in the west, accompanied by farm buildings and a three-story keep in the east.

Built during the 12th century in the Inn Valley, the castle maintains its original Romanesque architecture with minimal modifications since the 14th century.

The castle chapel received decorations in 1776, incorporating stucco designs that represent the architectural preferences of the late 18th century.

Currently owned by the Inama-Sternegg family since 1879, the castle remains closed to visitors and can only be viewed from external positions.

This fortress stands as the single moated castle in the Tyrol region, situated between the municipalities of Münster and Brixlegg.
