Lichtenau is a small town in Rastatt district in southwestern Baden-Württemberg, Germany. Lichtenau is located in the Upper Rhine River Plains on the right bank of the Rhine between Rastatt and Kehl. Lichtenau developed from a water castle that the Bishop of Strasbourg had built in the years 1293 to 1296, complete with defensive wall, ditch and parapet. In 1300 Lichtenau received its city charter and until its Slighting in 1686 it remained a fortress. After the line of the Counts of Hanau-Lichtenau ended the city became part of Hesse in 1736 and then was made part of Baden together with the Hanauerland in 1803. More information...
