Lahnstein, Spa town in Rhein-Lahn-Kreis, Germany

Located at the intersection of Rhine and Lahn rivers, Lahnstein extends across 36 square kilometers and maintains an elevation of 74 meters above sea level.

The settlement originated from two distinct towns, Oberlahnstein and Niederlahnstein, which merged in 1969 to form the current municipality of Lahnstein.

The medieval Lahneck Castle, constructed between 1240 and 1245, stands as a former residence of the Archbishop-Electors of Mainz above the Rhine River.

Three railway stations serve the town, with Niederlahnstein station functioning as a connection point between the East Rhine Railway and Lahn Valley Railway.

The town includes a mining museum in Friedrichssegen that documents the industrial development of mineral extraction in the surrounding region.
