Schloss Falkenegg stands in Coburg (Coburg), in Bavaria, Germany. The building is a listed Baudenkmal. Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
Schloss Falkenegg stands on a hillside in the Neuses district of Coburg, surrounded by a small sloping park. Built in 1847 in neo-Gothic style for Count von Mendorff, it was enlarged in 1891 by Baron von Ledersteger-Falkenegg, who gave it its present form, combining romantic medieval references with Italian and English Renaissance motifs. The adjoining park holds several memorial monuments, including a seven-metre sandstone obelisk dedicated to the writer Moritz August von Thümmel. Owned by the city of Coburg since 1941, the building now houses a kindergarten and its interior is not open to visitors.
