About Coburg

Welcome to the charming community of Coburg Oregon, located seven miles north of Eugene! First settled in 1847 by John Diamond and Jacob Spores, the small community gained fame for a beautiful stallion imported from Coburg Germany by a local blacksmith. The horse had such a reputation that the blossoming town was soon known simply as "Coburg." A fascinating heritage has awarded the City of Coburg recognition as a National Historic District, encompassing over 187 sites and structures.
