Bad Grönenbach, Market municipality and wellness resort in Unterallgäu, Germany.
Bad Grönenbach is a market municipality and spa town in the Unterallgäu region of Bavaria, situated at about 718 meters elevation amid rolling countryside. It spans 42 square kilometers and combines rural character with contemporary wellness facilities.
The town traces its documented origins to 1099 and became established in the Upper Swabian region. The construction of Hohes Schloss in the 12th century and later Unteres Schloss in 1563 marked important developments that shaped the area's character.
The Catholic church of St. Philippus and Jakobus shapes the appearance of the town center and remains at its heart. You notice the traces of this long religious tradition reflected in the buildings and daily rhythms of the community.
The town is accessible by rail through the Illertalbahn line, which runs through the Thal district station and connects to larger cities. The A7 motorway lies just about two kilometers away, making car travel straightforward.
The wellness offerings are based on the healing methods of Sebastian Kneipp, a pioneer of natural medicine whose principles emphasize water and movement. Visitors can experience these specific treatments in the spa facilities designed according to his approach.
