Altenhof Well House

Highlight • Monument

A half-timbered structure with a roof was erected over the well. Beautifully decorated, the building bears witness to the appreciation of the local fountain at the time. It can be assumed that the well was taken here. In earlier times, covered wells were mostly open.
The building with a half-timbered superstructure with a hipped roof dates from the 18th/19th. Century.

Village fountain

Highlight • Monument

A well is a structure used to obtain water from an aquifer. Different types of pumps are used to extract water from groundwater, formerly hand pumps, now mostly electric submersible and suction pumps. Other mechanical devices such as well buckets or water devices for pumping water are also common.

Tambach Castle

Highlight • Castle

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.

Tambach Ponds Cycle Path

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

The cycle path is very easy to ride and is safely constructed and leads past the Tambach ponds, the game reserve and the castle. More attention is required in Tambach itself.

Here you can buy butter, milk, raw milk, steak, sausages, organic eggs, cheese, sausage in jars, or drinks from vending machines. And of course, there are 15 varieties of farm-made ice cream, though unfortunately only in 500 ml tubs. Still, a great idea. Payment by debit card or cash up to €20 is accepted.

The village fountain is a work by Michael Trautmann and formerly stood in the Tambach castle courtyard. The year 1787 is inscribed on the front of the fountain trough. An eight-sided pyramid, crowned by an eagle, rises in the center.

You can see a fountain basin with a fountain pole. A group of figures depicting Christ and the Samaritan woman are part of the ensemble.

Weitramsdorf–Tambach Cycle Path

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

A good cycle path from Weitramsdorf to Tambach. It's particularly well-developed after Altenhof, where you can reach the wildlife park or continue towards Seßlach or Altenstein.

Weitramsdorf Maypole

Highlight • Monument

This beautiful coat of arms tree was erected here in the central square in 1977 to mark the 800th anniversary of Weitramsdorf.

Weitramsdorf, the center of the large community of Weitramsdorf in the Coburg district, was first mentioned in documents around the year 1177. At that time, Bishop Otto II of Bamberg confirmed that Ulrich von Callenberg and his sons Poppo and Konrad had sold goods to the Cistercian monastery Langheim (near Lichtenfels) for “Witramesdorf”, some for 30 silver marks, and some had given them as gifts.
