St. Johann

St. Johann combines open farmland with the wooded contours of the Swabian Alb in a way that reflects its position on this elevated limestone plateau in Baden-Württemberg. The municipality lies within the Swabian Alb Biosphere Reserve, a protected cultural landscape shaped by grazing, agriculture and forest. Founded in 1975, St. Johann brought together the formerly independent communities of Bleichstetten, Lonsingen, Ohnastetten, Sirchingen, Upfingen and Würtingen. Its dispersed settlement pattern gives the area a distinctly rural character, far from the larger cities on the Alb’s northern edge.
