Coburg
Coburg is a city in Upper Franconia. Coburg has been a household name since the 19th century as the local, relatively minor noble family "Saxe-Coburg-Gotha" managed to marry into plenty of European royal families, leading to "European family reunions" at their place during the Belle Epoque.| Tap on a place to explore it |
