The city area was already settled in Roman times in ancient times. For over 500 years, Günzburg belonged to the Habsburg Empire and thus to Austria. It was not until 1806 that the city was incorporated into the Kingdom of Bavaria. The almost completely preserved historic old town is particularly charming. The center of Günzburg is surrounded by largely intact city fortifications. At the center lies Günzburg's market square, through which Marktstraße runs. This divides the old town into two parts. It is bordered by two stone towers with gates. The town tower at the western end was built in the 14th century and can be climbed via an internal staircase. Buildings from the 16th to 19th centuries line the narrow alleys. The Frauenkirche (Church of Our Lady) is a magnificent Rococo building. The church was consecrated in 1780 and features an ornately decorated interior. The church was consecrated in 1780 and has a richly decorated interior.
