Bad Überkingen

The three towns of Bad Überkingen, Hausen an der Fils, and Unterböhringen were ceded by the Free Imperial City of Ulm to the Electorate of Bavaria in 1802. In 1810, Bavaria ceded the three towns to the Kingdom of Württemberg, whose government assigned them to Oberamt Göppingen. Bad Überkingen was allowed to append the prefix "Bad" to its name in 1927. The district of Göppingen was reorganized in 1938 as Landkreis Göppingen, its current and contemporary form.

The municipality of Bad Überkingen is situated in the district of Göppingen, in Baden-Württemberg, one of the 16 States of the Federal Republic of Germany. Bad Überkingen is physically located in the central foothills of the Swabian Jura, in the upper Fils river valley as far as the Filsalb. Elevation above sea level in the municipal area ranges from a high of 751 meters Normalnull on the Michelsberg to a low of 400 meters NN on the Fils.
