The enchantment of a dynasty of European rank, the House
of the Dukes of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha
The Coburg rooms in the Castle of Greinburg in Austria
bring alive through their artefacts the history of one of
the most significant ruling families in Europe. The works
of art which have been handed down and conserved through
generations bear witness to the splendour and the far
reaching family connections of the House of Coburg.
