Ochsenhausen, Urban municipality in Biberach district, Baden-Württemberg, Germany

The municipality stretches across 59.96 square kilometers of rolling terrain at 613 meters elevation between the cities of Biberach and Memmingen.

The settlement grew around Ochsenhausen Abbey, established in 1093, which became a self-governing principality within the Holy Roman Empire until 1803.

The former Benedictine monastery complex contains the Basilica of St. George, demonstrating the religious architectural traditions of Upper Swabia.

Visitors can reach Ochsenhausen through regional trains connecting to major cities, with accommodation options including local guesthouses and hotels.

The Öchsle narrow-gauge railway operates heritage trips between Ochsenhausen and Warthausen, preserving regional transportation history.
