To make a day of it
Schloss Eichhof stands in Coburg (Coburg), in Bavaria, Germany. The building is a listed Baudenkmal. No visits are on record for this building.
Schloss Eichhof stands on a low rise above the Güßbach valley, in the Scheuerfeld district of Coburg. First recorded in 1440, it was rebuilt several times, with the present two wings dating mainly from the late 17th and early 18th centuries. Having passed between Coburg burghers and the ducal family over the centuries, the estate is now privately owned and run as a stud farm. The building combines a solid sandstone ground floor with a slate-covered half-timbered upper storey.
