The Liberal Citizen's Party of Besmenia (Besmenian: Liberale Bürgerpartei Besmeniens), was a national-liberal political party in East Besmenia.

The LBB was founded in 1930, after the Besmenian Democratic Party and the Besmenian Freedom Party merged into a common party. As early as the 1928 East Besmenian federal election, both parties stood for election as a party alliance under the name Liberal Citizen's. The party was a member of the East Besmenian government from 1940 to 1956 and was the largest party in the Federal Chamber from 1944 to 1960. LBB-Chairman Albrecht Nebeling served as Prime Minister from 1944 to 1958.

In the early 1960s disputes within the party arose over political alignment. In 1963, Jürgen Rothmann, a supporter of the centre-liberal wing of LBB, became chairman. Under Rothmann, the LBB was renamed to Free Besmenian Citizen's Party and concentrated on a stronger centre-liberal orientation.
