Schloss Lauterecken, Cultural heritage château in Lauterecken, Germany.
The stone château stands at the confluence of Lauter and Glan rivers, featuring architectural elements from different construction periods throughout its existence.
The château originated in 1343 as a medieval fortress, later transformed into a representative residence by Count Palatine Rupert during the 16th century.
The building contains the legacy of the Counts of Palatinate-Veldenz, with fifteen members of the dynasty buried in the nearby Provost's Church on Remigiusberg.
The château, situated at Veldenzplatz 1, underwent internal renovations in 2017 to accommodate visitors interested in German architectural heritage.
The Veldenz lion, representing the historical ruling family, remains incorporated in both the town's coat of arms and the Bavarian heraldic symbols.
