We present the largest visually selected sample of extended ($>$60 arcsec) radio-loud active galactic nuclei (RLAGN) to date, based on the LOw-Frequency Array Two-Metre Sky Survey second data release (LoTSS DR2). From the broader LoTSS DR2 dataset with spectroscopic classifications, we construct a subsample of 2828 RLAGN with radio luminosities greater than $10^{23}~\mathrm{W~Hz^{-1}}$ at $z
