Burgwindheim lies west-southwest of Bamberg in the Steigerwald (forest). It is found between Ebrach in the west and Burgebrach in the east, on the Mittlere Ebrach. The name’s meaning is unclear. Could it have something to do with an early settler named “Wind”, or does the community’s Wendish past yield the name? The leaping greyhound (a Wendish symbol) in the coat of arms might offer a clue. The community had its first documentary mention in 1140. It is believed to have been settled at the time of the Frankish taking of the land. More information...
