Schmölln, Town hall and market square in Schmölln, Germany.

The municipality of Schmölln extends across 94 square kilometers of Thuringian landscape, encompassing 44 local subdivisions at an elevation of 220 meters.

First documented in 1066 as ABBATIA ZMULNA, Schmölln developed around a religious cloister constructed on Pfefferberg hill in 1127 and remained a destination for pilgrims.

The Lindenau Museum in Schmölln maintains collections of regional artifacts and artwork while the local music school provides education programs throughout the year.

The town connects to major transportation routes via Bundesautobahn 4 at exit 61 and maintains a train station on the Middle-Germany railway link between Weimar and Glauchau.

The municipality underwent significant territorial changes in 2019, incorporating numerous surrounding communities to form its current administrative boundaries.
