    The baroque castle was built in several construction phases at the end of the 17th and 18th centuries (1694-1786) as a summer residence for the abbots of Langheim. In the first construction phase, the Langheim abbot Gallus Knauer had the eastern wing built between 1694 and 1698 according to plans attributed to Johann Leonard Dietzenhofer. The later parts of the west wing and western central wing were originally built as four-storey commercial buildings. The four floors reached a total height of the three living spaces of the first part of the building. However, by the end of the 18th century there was already a desire to make the castle-like three-wing complex more representative.

      However, with secularization, the Langheim monastery office and the Tambach Castle monastery office were dissolved. Tambach Castle fell to the Bavarian royal house in 1803 and to the House of Ortenburg in 1806 in exchange for the County of Ortenburg in Lower Bavaria. Tambach Castle only acquired its current appearance at the beginning of the 20th century. The original fountains by the Bamberg sculptor Michael Trautmann (1742-1809) were removed when the Protestant Counts of Ortenburg moved in and distributed to the communities of Neuendorf and Hergramsdorf. The current fountain in the castle courtyard was built at the beginning of the 20th century.

      The private castle church in the castle is open to the public and can be accessed from the castle courtyard. The church can be booked for weddings and baptisms.
