🇩🇪 GERMANY: Coburg Castle (Veste Coburg) | TRAVEL VLOG

Coburg Castle (Veste Coburg) was home for centuries to the Saxe-Coburgs, who married into families all over Europe, including Russia and the family of the current English monarchy. The castle is one of the most well-preserved in Europe, and it's quite impressive upon approach, sitting on a high hill overlooking the small city of Coburg, Germany.
The castle houses one of the most important collections of glass in the world, as well as an extensive collection of armour and weapons.

We felt like we were in a scene straight out of Game of Thrones when we approached this castle, and especially when we walked on top of the wall. Come along and see why!

[@dakarirhys5264]

I know I am kind of randomly asking but do anyone know a good site to watch newly released movies online?

[@jalenorion2622]

You missed the most important Coburg specialty: the famous Coburg Rostbratwurst. Best sausage in the world!!

Greetings Fromm Upper Frankonia

[@ambermarieadescat2530]

How amazing is that castle!!! Wow! And I also believe Victoria was a Coburg somewhere down the line, because wasnt Albert her cousin?

[@TheWanderingWife]

Yes! The current royal family has a lot of German in their bloodline.

[@ambermarieadescat2530]

Loved this vlog!! Thank you as always!

[@ambermarieadescat2530]

Thank you so much! I appreciate the information! 😁I love Queen Victoria historical facts. Really enjoyed the movie "The Young Victoria".

[@TheWanderingWife]

bademeister are you a history major? I could never remember a all of that! Thanks for the continued info, and for watching. 😊

[@TheWanderingWife]

Amber Marie Adescat I did too! Are you watching The Crown? Much more recent but very interesting.

[@marieke1995]

This is beautiful. I am from Coburg and just moved to another city. Whenever I'll get homesick, I will watch this video! ♥️

[@TheWanderingWife]

Thank you so much!

[@davidgodley521]

Thanks for the tour.

[@TheWanderingWife]

Thank you for watching!

[@NananaSounds]

Sweet 💕 The place is awesome..

[@mattwagnerofficial6499]

Glad you guys went there before Corona. I found your video, after watching a documentary about Prince Albert. That was his castle. England screwed that guy over.

[@TheWanderingWife]

He was an interesting guy.

[@islanddog32963]

Ice job and very informative

[@eddy5673]

It’s a very pretty castle 🏰✨

[@schubertotto2699]

Excellent. Ausgezeichnet

[@detlefschnepel2723]

I think I commented before, you forgot the second main attraction of Coburg: those absolutely delicious and delirious Coburger Rostbratwürste grilled on pine cones …

[@TheWanderingWife]

I don’t think I had those! I’ll have to try when we go back.

[@luckyqualmi]

Nice video (like your others I just watched :D )! Coburg may be one of the bigger castles, but not the largest. There are others like Burghausen which are bigger I believe. Fun fact: Coburg was never taken by a military force, but one time they faked a letter and made the defenders believe they were ordered to hand it over to the "attackers". ;)

[@wallycamp909]

The tagline mentions Game of Thrones, then not another mention in the comments?

[@TheWanderingWife]

I believe what we said was that it felt like we were in the game of thrones because of the bleak, freezing, snowy weather on the upper ramparts. There is no actual connection the the GoT. Thanks for watching!

[@geertiify]

12.000 years ago is not correct!!! 1.200 years will do. (at 3:03)

[@schubertotto2699]

You miss the monument to those who died during the Great War.😔

[@TheWanderingWife]

I will have to look for it next time we’re there. Thank you for telling me about it.

[@Gayalert69]

There is no such thing as a 'current English monarchy'. There is a British monarchy.
