    The moated castle, also known as the Lower Castle, was probably built at the beginning of the 13th century by Knight Thiemo de Suemen. The castle changed hands several times in the following centuries, including Duke Ernst I of Coburg. The destruction of the Thirty Years' War was used as an opportunity to renovate and expand the castle grounds. After the death of the last lord of Untersiemau, the castle threatened to fall into disrepair. Although the castle was built 700 years earlier, its current appearance only came about in the 20th century. Bodo Ebhard, the restorer of Veste Coburg, was responsible for giving the moated castle a completely new facade in the historicist style. The castle is privately owned and can therefore only be admired from the outside.

      The castle is well hidden behind a wall. You can only catch a glimpse of it through the open gate.

        beautiful facility, unfortunately you are not allowed to enter. But across the street, it's worth stopping at the Greek, at best book in advance, as it's always well frequented
