Coburg was an important aristocratic town, thanks to the dukes who once lived there. Over four centuries the Dukes of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha married into the royal families of several European countries like Belgium, Bulgaria, Portugal, and most prominently, Great Britain. Until the early 20th century, it was a common holiday destination for the royals of Europe. Martin Luther once described Coburg as “exceedingly charming”, and when you visit this place you will understand what exactly he meant by it.
