Günzburg, Administrative district in Swabia, Bavaria, Germany.

The Günzburg district covers 763 square kilometers of land between the Danube River and its tributaries, encompassing 34 municipalities with 131,375 residents.

The district emerged from the medieval county of Burgau, which Austria acquired in 1213, and later transformed through a merger of Günzburg and Krumbach districts in 1972.

The district's coat of arms displays red and white colors with a yellow beam and an eagle, representing the historical margraviate and the Schwabegg-Ursberg monastic legacy.

The region maintains strong transportation links via the A8 motorway connecting Munich and Stuttgart, while offering access to intercity trains through Günzburg station.

The district contains the Augsburg Western Forests Nature Park in its eastern section, with three rivers - Biber, Günz, and Mindel - shaping its geographical features.
