Unterallgäu

The Unterallgäu district spans 1,230 square kilometers across the pre-alpine region, featuring valleys, forests, and agricultural lands between Munich and Lake Constance.

The current administrative boundaries of Unterallgäu emerged in 1972 through the merger of former districts Mindelheim and Memmingen during Bavaria's territorial reform.

Each municipality in Unterallgäu maintains German customs through regular markets, seasonal festivals, and traditional Bavarian celebrations in their town squares.

The district capital Mindelheim provides administrative services for 52 municipalities, with direct transport connections to major Bavarian cities via regional trains and highways.

The Ungerhauser Forest within Unterallgäu contains natural glacial formations that shape the landscape and create distinctive hiking paths through the district.
