 On the heights far out of the village, below the Wolfsbösch and near the Breitsesterhof, which belongs to Baumholder, lies the Berghof, one of Thallichtenberg's outlying homesteads.Institutions of national importance are housed within the old castle complex, the "Musikantenlandmuseum", for instance, which deals with the history of travelling musicians from this region, and also the "Geoskop" (museum of primitive times), a branch location of the Bad Dürkheim Palatine Museum ("Pfalzmuseum Bad Dürkheim").Also found at Lichtenberg Castle are the Evangelical church for the villages of Thallichtenberg and Ruthweiler, the youth hostel, the herb garden, a well visited inn with a nice view and a registry office.
