The municipality of Lichte is located in the southern part of the Thuringian Forest, in beautiful, wooded surroundings. Surrounded by mountains that rise up to 800 m above sea level.

Lichte consists of four districts: Wallendorf, Bock and Teich, Geiersthal and Lichte. You will find peace and relaxation during walks through extensive forests and flowery meadows with natural beauties that have become rare in many places.

White gold" - porcelain - has been produced in Lichte since 1764. A visit to our local porcelain factories will give you an insight into this traditional craft and a small souvenir will always remind you of your visit to Lichte.

The town's landmark, the 253 m long and 34 m high railroad viaduct, which spans the valley in which our town stretches out, is also worth seeing and impressive.
