Veste Coburg

Perched up a hill overlooking the city centre sits Veste-Coburg, an 11th-century medieval fortress. For whatever reason, the fortification sees comparatively few visitors, even though it’s considered one of the best preserved and largest castles and forts in the entire country. The rooms hold an intriguing collection of hunting devices, weapons and armoury, as well as notable artworks by Dürer, Rembrandt and other world-renowned painters.
