Leonberg, Urban municipality in Böblingen district, Germany.
The municipality of Leonberg extends across hills and valleys at 386 meters elevation, situated 16 kilometers west of Stuttgart in Baden-Württemberg.
Count Ulrich I of Württemberg established Leonberg in 1248, incorporating defensive stone fortifications and a moat system around the settlement perimeter.
The traditional horse market, initiated in 1684, continues each February with a procession through the medieval streets of Leonberg.
