Bad Schussenried

Bad Schussenried is a spa town in the district of Biberach in upper Swabia, Baden-Württemberg, Germany. It grew around a Premonstratensian house founded in 1183, which became an imperial abbey. The abbey's rococo library hall, completed in the 1750s with a ceiling fresco by Franz Georg Hermann, survives. Secularised in 1803, the territory passed to Württemberg in 1806.
