The Coburg bay window is a variant of the corner bay window , so only in Coburg was built. It dates from the end of the 16th century and is characterized by three architectural features. These are a supporting pillar in front of the corner of the house, a two-story construction and the end with a Welsche hood .

There are five Coburg bay windows in the city. The Town Hall oriel window of Hans Schlachter from 1575 is the oldest form of such a decorative element in Coburg. This was followed by the bay window at Ehrenburg Palace in Steingasse in 1593 and the two bay windows at the town house in 1601 . The three-storey corner house at Markt 6 between Marktplatz and Judengasse has another bay window in Coburg .
