Käseburg stands in Brüheim (Landkreis Gotha), in Thuringia, Germany. No visits are on record for this building.

The Käseburg is a former moated motte castle built in the Middle Ages at the edge of the village of Brüheim, in the marshy valley of the Nesse river. What remains today is chiefly a 13th century residential tower of rough stone, about ten metres high, topped with a timber-framed upper section added in the 19th century. Next to it stands the Edelhof, a manor house built around 1700 by the von Wangenheim family on the site of the former farm buildings. The whole complex, now privately owned and undergoing restoration, faces the village church.
