Burg Landstuhl stands in Landstuhl (Landkreis Kaiserslautern), in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany. No visits are on record for this building.

Burg Landstuhl, also known as the Löwensteinisches Haus, was a small fortified building set into the town wall of Landstuhl, in the Landkreis Kaiserslautern, Rhineland-Palatinate. It included a multi-storey residential wing attached to a stair tower, as shown in a coloured view of the town from around 1600. Owned successively by the Puller von Hohenburg family, then Walter Blick von Lichtenberg, and from 1484 by Schweickhardt von Sickingen, it was never rebuilt after the Thirty Years' War. No visible remains of the structure survive today.
