An illuminated sign includes a housing and/or a frame, a plate of a light-transmitting material and at least one three-dimensional body, likewise of a light-transmitting material such as a convex strip, in the form of figure, a sign, a decoration or the like, and a light source, which is mounted on the housing and/or the frame. The illuminated sign further includes one or more light guides for coupling light from the light source into the three-dimensional body or bodies. The light guide(s) make(s) it possible to capture light from, for example, one centrally disposed TL tube and couple said light into at least one three-dimensional body, so that an effective lighting of said body is obtained.
