Bobingen

Bobingen is a town in the Augsburg region of Bavaria, Germany, functioning as a municipal administrative center. It contains residential neighborhoods, commercial areas, and green spaces connected by streets and pathways that shape daily movement through the town.

The settlement was founded around 506 by an Alamannic settler named Pobo, with its first written mention occurring in 993 as Pobinga. These early origins shaped the development that led to its current form as a municipal center.

The town's coat of arms features a horseshoe, which reflects connections to the area's past relationship with horse breeding and trade. This symbol remains visible in public spaces and contributes to how residents connect with their community's identity.

Visitors can access municipal services through the citizen service office, which handles inquiries in person and by phone. Most central services are within walking distance of the town center and clearly marked.

The Wertachklinik Bobingen has shared operations with Schwabmünchen hospitals since 2006, providing medical care to the surrounding region. This partnership allowed the town to streamline medical infrastructure while maintaining comprehensive healthcare services for residents.
