Frontenhausen

Frontenhausen is a market municipality in the Dingolfing-Landau district of Bavaria. The village spreads across a rural landscape defined by farmland and open fields.

The village was established as an independent community and developed over time as a rural settlement. In 2018 it underwent administrative reorganization that reassigned its electoral district.

The village gained recognition through the 2013 crime film Dampfnudelblues, which was filmed on its streets and introduced it to a wider audience. The production brought local attention to the place in German cinema.

The municipality is easily accessible from larger Bavarian cities and the village layout is straightforward to navigate. The market square at the center serves as the natural starting point for visitors seeking local facilities.

The municipality has a strong connection to local gastronomy, particularly through traditional dishes like Dampfnüdel. These regional specialties form an important part of local identity and draw visitors interested in food heritage.
