Senden, town in Bavaria, Germany
Senden is a town in the Neu-Ulm district of Bavaria and sits directly along the Iller River, which separates it from Ulm. The town has a compact city center with regional architecture and serves as a key commercial and residential hub for the surrounding area.
The town developed along the Iller River as a trading post and settlement, shaped by its proximity to Ulm and the importance of waterways in the region. Its growth followed the economic cycles of the area and Bavaria's industrialization in the 19th and 20th centuries.
The town is easy to explore on foot and offers various shops, restaurants, and recreational facilities for visitors. Its direct location on the river allows for walks along the water and access to nearby recreational areas.
The town is separated from Ulm by the river despite lying directly beside it, now forming what is essentially one continuous urban area. This position along a border between two administrative regions long shaped the town's identity and development.
