Mössingen, Administrative town in Tübingen district, Germany

Located north of the Swabian Jura at 477 meters above sea level, Mössingen extends across 50 square kilometers of varied terrain with geological formations.

First documented in 774 through Lorsch Abbey records, Mössingen transferred from Zollern county control to the Duchy of Württemberg in 1441.

The Peter and Paul Church, constructed in 1517, stands as a central religious monument while the Woodcut Museum displays regional artistic heritage.

Mössingen provides educational facilities including the Gottlieb-Rühle secondary school and Quenstedt-Gymnasium, serving the needs of 20,900 local residents.

The area experienced notable geological events with substantial landslides in 1983 and 2013 due to its distinct layered rock composition.
