Schloss Tambach stands at Weitramsdorf, in the Landkreis Coburg, in Bavaria. Built from 1694 as a summer residence for the abbots of Langheim, it took on its present form in the early twentieth century under the counts zu Ortenburg, who still live there today. The Schloss itself remains a private home closed to visitors, but its baroque chapel, designed by the master builder Lorenz Fink in a pure Louis XVI style, can be seen from the courtyard. Part of the former park was later turned into a wildlife park open to the public.
