The twisted wreath product of two groups was first defined by B. H. Neumann ([1]) who used this construction to present a group-theoretic proof of a theorem due to Auslander and Lyndon. In this paper we present a complete characterization of the direct product decompositions of a restricted twisted wreath product of two groups A and B provided this product is not simply a semi-direct product of A by B.
