Ochsenhausen

Ochsenhausen occupies the valley of the Rottum in Upper Swabia, Baden-Württemberg. The town is defined by Ochsenhausen Abbey, a former Benedictine imperial abbey whose extensive Baroque buildings and church form its historic core. Founded in 1093, the monastery became a self-governing imperial abbey within the Holy Roman Empire and was secularised in 1803. Its former precinct now houses Baden-Württemberg’s State Academy for Young Musicians, maintaining a living connection with musical education. Ochsenhausen is also a terminus of the Öchsle, a heritage narrow-gauge railway that runs through the Upper Swabian countryside to Warthausen.
