The castle Wadenau is an Outbound Wasserburg in Kusel ( Rheinland-Pfalz ).
The former moated castle, or fortified courtyard, built by the knights of Wadenau, is believed to be in the southwestern area of today's village of Thallichtenberg or in the district of Dennweiler-Frohnbach . The seal of the knight Bertram von Wadenau from 1290 shows two crossbars, which were covered with three and two balls. This seal was adopted in the municipal coats of arms of Thallichtenberg and Dennweiler-Frohnbach.
